Folklore And Firesides of Pomfret Hampton and Vicinity

Folklore and Firesides is a local history and collection of memories in the area of Pomfret Connecticut. Our local Library is having book club reading and discussing the book over the course of a year. Our real appreciation is to Higginson books who helped us get multiple copies quickly and easily. We will order more from Higginson.
