Date: 2024-07-03 06:40 pm (UTC)I do archival volunteer at the Danbury Museum and am currently working through the correspondence and author's notes compiled for the 1896 book The History of Danbury. I thought I ought also read the published book and have been slogging through the 1896 book for a couple of months now, but it's poorly written and consists mostly of 'here's these rich/middle class white guys and what they did' from the mid 17th century to the end of the 19th. I'll finish it this month but be very happy to leave it behind when I do.
