This looks like a book I might like to get.
Can you describe it better please.

Number of pages, number of pictures: black & white, vs color. Table of Contents. Hardcover vs pb.
Perhaps a sample page or two.

The book is 151 pages with 3 to 5 pictures per page. 

All pictures are b/w since they are historical in nature and not "colorized". 

It's hardcover and very durable.

Table of Contents

1. Main Street
2. The Green
3. The Court House
4. The Neighborhood
5. Schools
6. HHS Sports
7. The Hospital
8. Serving the Public
9. Houses of Worship
10. Daily Life
11. Historic Homes
12. Notable Buildings
13. Monuments.
14. The USS Ling
15. The River
16. "Et Cetera"

I highly recommend the book.  Besides, the proceeds go toward scholarships, so it's a great cause.  The people who worked on this should be commended.
