This new release from History Press celebrates the town of Medford, MA. Since its early days in the possession of a man who never set foot on the land itself, Medford has been a place of possibility. Many Medford residents have made their mark on American culture, including James Tufts, Fannie Farmer, ship building entrepreneur Thather Magoun and emancipated slave Belinda Royall. Morris renders a richly detailed history, from Medford Square rum distilleries and their molasses scent to the Amelia Earhart who lived in West Medford briefly before her first successful transatlantic flight. Paperback, 2009
