CRAFTSBURY – Friday, August 8th, at 6 p.m., all are welcome to join at the Craftsbury Public Library for the release party of Craftsbury Celebration.
Long-time Craftsbury residents Thomas Twetten (author) and Harry Miller (photographer) will do some short presentations, take questions and conversation about their lovingly rendered book, “Craftsbury Celebration.” It documents over 70 homes, still in use, built before 1860. Each page tells the history of a home and its occupants and is accompanied by full-color photographs. In addition, there are short essays about various public buildings in town as well as historic photos sprinkled throughout the book.
This book was created as a fundraiser, with all the proceeds from this limited edition book going to another venerable institution in town, the Craftsbury Public Library. There are only 500 copies of this book, signed and numbered by the author and photographer. There will not be another printing, so this is a valuable keepsake contribution to our area’s history and a great cause to support.
The book is now available for pre-sale and shipping online, https://www.craftsburypubliclibrary.org/craftsbury-book. Physical copies can be purchased and picked up at, or after, a book launch.
