Description

Holland and Its Neighbors offers a glimpse of bygone times in a rural area of northeastern Vermont along the Canadian border. Holland is typical of many rural small cities. Its neighboring Canadian cities and Norton, Derby, Morgan, and Charleston, Vermont, have familial, geographical, and historical connections that give the world a novel and cohesive culture. Mills and lumber-related businesses were established early, and as land was once cleared, farming also become the most important way of living. Holland and Its Neighbors includes photographs of loggers and mill employees, even as images of horse-drawn equipment and horse-powered machinery illustrate hard work and long hours on hardscrabble farms. Interesting community characters such as Big Jack, peddler Jabez, fortuneteller Marie, hermit Scotty, and Haw Tabor also are pictured.
