"The first book-length study of this small community located in the foothills of Vermont's Green Mountains. Organized thematically, the book tells the story of Richmond through the people, events, and institutions that helped to develop and define the town. Appendices further enrich the account by providing lists of war veterans, state representatives, those buried in Richmond's first cemetery, and other notable citizens. The book also contains more than 300 photos, illustrations, and maps"--Publisher's description.
