The year 1997 marks the 125th anniversary of the town of Norwood, which was historically composed of the villages of Tiot, South Dedham, The Hook, Swedeville, The Ward, Cork City, Dublin, South Norwood, Morse Hill, Christian Hill, Westover, and Ellis. The Norwood Historical Society--founded at the very beginning of the twentieth century--has served as a repository of images from all these communities, and it is with great pride that the society offers the enclosed selections from its photographic archives in this timely publication. Many of the images in this collection, which chronicles the community's development from a rural village through the industrial and technological eras, have never before been published. The glass-plate negatives on which they were preserved were only recently discovered in the society's attic. Some images are attributed to the famous Norwood photographer Fred Holland Day, whose interest in the history of his hometown and passion for the art of photography provided the inspiration for this book. All of the images work together to illustrate a way of life now long forgotten, and to document the existence of historical sites, some of which remain standing today and others of which have succumbed to the ravages of time.

For the first time ever, journalist Win Everetts frank and enduring works are collected in a book about the history and character of Norwood, Massachusetts. Long ago, when Norwood was only virgin forests and streams, the Neponset Indian tribe christened the region Tyota place of waters. The name lingered on the tongues of residents long after their home was renamed and the advent of railroads opened up the region once enclosed by rivers and lakes. As rugged farmhouses dotted the plains and Puritan spires rose above the trees, the sleepy Tyot blossomed into the bustling community of Norwood. Decades later, journalist Win Everett preserved Norwoods colorful history in his column Tales of Tyot. With stories of haunted taverns and superstitious soldiers, influenza and the industrial age, Everett profiles the fascinating people who left their marks on the pages of Norwood history. Available for the first time in a single volume, these articles bring three centuries of history to life through the artful voice of Norwoods beloved storyteller.

This remarkable biography features a white American pacifist minister whose tireless work for justice and human rights helped reshape Black civil rights in the U.S. and Africa. George M. Houser (1916–2015) was one of the most important civil rights and antiwar activists of the twentieth century. A conscientious objector during World War II, in 1942 Houser cofounded and led the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE), whose embrace of nonviolent protest strategies and tactics characterized the modern American Civil Rights Movement. Beginning in the 1950s, Houser played a critical role in pan-Africanist anticolonial movements, and his more than thirty-year dedication to the cause of human rights and self-determination helped prepare the ground for the toppling of the South African apartheid regime. Throughout his life, Houser shunned publicity, preferring to let his actions speak his faith. Sheila Collins’s well-researched biography recounts the events that informed Houser’s life of activism—from his childhood experiences as the son of missionaries in the Philippines to his early grounding in the Social Gospel and the teachings of Mohandas Gandhi. In light of the corruption the U.S. and the world face today, Houser’s story of faith and decisive action for human rights and social justice is one for our time.

London 2: South is a uniquely comprehensive guide to the twelve southern boroughs. Its riverside buildings range from the royal splendours of Hampton Court and Greenwich and the Georgian delights of Richmond, to the monuments of Victorian commerce in Lambeth and Southwark. But the book also charts lesser known suburbs, from former villages such as Clapham to still rural, Edwardian Chislehurst, as well as the results of twentieth-century planners' dreams from Roehampton to Thamesmead. Full accounts are given of London landmarks as diverse as Southwark Cathedral, Soane's Dulwich Picture Gallery and the arts complex of the South Bank. The outer boroughs include diverse former country houses - Edward IV's Eltham Palace, the Jacobean Charlton House, and the Palladian Marble Hill. The rich Victorian churches and school buildings are covered in detail, as are the exceptional structures of Kew Gardens.
