Whitman

Meer over het boek

Rich in history beyond its famous Toll House cookie, Whitman is a town that played a pivotal role in America's early development. Nestled between Boston and Cape Cod, it transitioned from mills and foundries to a hub of shoe manufacturing. The book offers a nostalgic trolley ride through its charming center and park, designed by Frederick L. Olmstead. With over two hundred photographs, it captures the essence of Whitman’s schools, churches, commerce, and the everyday lives of its residents, evoking memories of simpler times.
