| Publisher Description: Join the Anson Bicentennial Committee on a journey through Anson s past with the help of this unprecedented collection of images. Commemorating the town s 200th birthday, Anson covers the history of a small but active and progressive community. Included in the collection are images of the great floods and disastrous fires encountered by the residents of Anson. A town that grew and flourished despite setbacks, Anson took advantage of its two rivers, the Carrabassett and the Kennebec. Also included are images of the town s growth from earlier days, when it was a part of Massachusetts, directly on the path of Arnold s march to Quebec. Anson details the activities and events in the lives of its residents and the history of a unique community." |
