Of Time and the River

Saugus 1900-2005




Description

Of Time and the River is the long-awaited sequel to the extremely successful (and long sold-out) A Gathering of Memories and is destined to become just as collectible. It gathers more of the memories and photographs of scores of people into one nearly 500 page hardcover volume. In the words of the editors:

Of Time and the River: Saugus 1900-2005, has been written at the urging of those who had read and enjoyed A Gathering of Memories.

A Gathering was working with a blank canvas, giving us freedom to choose whatever design or structure we wanted in developing a comprehensive picture of Saugus of that century.

The blank canvas was not there for us to use in producing Of Time and the River to play its role in supporting the joint effort of the two publications. We elected to concentrate on the men and woman of Saugus in that century, but we have not confined ourselves exclusively to that. As submissions came in, in response to our invitation, we found them to be unpredictable, diverse and revealing. Inevitably they influenced the shape and spirit of our book. We are happy with the results.

Of Time and the River, a vehicle for these Saugonians and ex-Saugonians whose submissions make up this book, regards itself not as a separate book in a series, but as a companion caught up in the spirit and objective of A Gathering. Companions who will sit on your bookshelf, joined in their objective -- to leave for future generations the fullest picture we could create of Saugus in the 20th Century.
