Synopsis

Northfield, Vermont, with a population of 6,000, is a town steeped in rich history and brushes with fame. Home to such luminaries as Frank Plumley, a renowned international law expert, a nationally known orator, the Green Mountain State’s most famous barrister during the latter 1800s and early twentieth century and a noted congressman, Northfield has been a small but pivotal part of America’s past.One Hundred Years of It is a Northfielder’s inside view and flight of fancy all in one. Lifelong resident Peter Young inserts himself one hundred years back in time and recounts Northfield’s close encounters with greatness through the years 1843 through 1943. From his experiences as a drummer boy in Northfield’s Company F in the Civil War, to participation in salacious local murder trials under the employment of Frank Plumley, to the annual meeting of the Vermont Fish and Game League that Vice President Teddy Roosevelt attended and learned about the assassination of President McKinley, to the construction of the Victory Arch commemorating World War I, and the beginnings of World War II, Peter Young is there, giving the reader a front row seat to Vermont’s abundant history.
