Publisher Description: The photographs in Slatington, Walnutport, and Washington Township show readers what the area looked like from when it was a slate quarrying community through the canal era to the present. Among the views are images of a Lehigh Valley Railroad train accident that led to the demolition of the Slatington station, soapbox derby races down Main Street in Slatington, the Lehigh Canal in Walnutport, and life in the slate quarry towns of Slatedale, Emerald, and Washington Township. |
