Around Woodbury Frederick W Chesson

Woodbury lies in the Pomperaug Valley of western Connecticut, in the heart of what is known as Antique Alley. On every side are towns that once fell--in whole or in part--within the boundaries of Woodbury: Southbury, South Britain, Bethlehem, and Middlebury. All of these communities appear in Around Woodbury. This fascinating pictorial history tells the story of an important and beautiful area, that has long exerted a great cultural influence on the region. The book's insightful narrative and vivid photographs contain an amazing amount of detail and create a vivid account of the early people, activities, stores, schools, churches, and events of this special area.
