Synopsis

Limited First Edition Book. ( from the inside dust jacket.) There's never been a Vermont history book quite like this one. There's a historical story here for every single day of the year! What happened on your birthday?.. Or anniversary?.. or any other day, for that matter? It's all in here, day by day, for 12 full months! The Vermont Book of Days- The First Year is based on the popular television and radio program broadcast throughout Vermont. Nestled between the title page and the index are 365 stories from all over Vermont. You'll find everything from serious historical snapshots to whimsical glimpses into the habits and lifestyles of Vermonters from times gone by. Learn about a published obituary for a prized sheep. Travel to Franklin County with a group of New York City Irishmen, convinced that because they've got a bunch of men and a single cannon, they just might be able to invade Canada. Share the tragic loss of a child with President and First Lady Coolidge. Meet a Vermonter from Windsor named Coolidge, who's not quite as well known as the one from Plymouth Notch. This is a book you'll return to again and again. There's discovery and adventure on every page. Courtesy of keymedia
