Kitap açıklaması
With Somerset, the first pictorial history of the town ever created, resident historian James E. Bradbury has created a nostalgic look at his home from the Civil War to the 1960s. The book focuses on the people who have made Somerset what it is today from shipbuilders and seafarers to iron workers and trolley car men. Somerset tells the story of a variety of residents and their contributions to the town s rich history. It presents the tale of Clifford Holland, a Somerset man who built the world s first successful vehicular tunnel between New York and New Jersey. Also featured is Shirley May France, a town resident who, at age seventeen, attempted unsuccessfully to swim the daunting English Channel. Less well-known but equally important civic-minded citizens of Somerset also appear in Bradbury s work like Dr. Frank Morrill, proud deliverer of over one thousand babies in his sixty-one years of service to Somerset and Fall River."
