From the dust jacket: "In the 1970s, in response to a town crisis caused by the closing of the Cheshire Mills in bankruptcy, townspeople and preservationists made one of the first successful attempts in the country to preserve a whole community of historical importance. They accomplished it by preservation techniques and values familiar today but then highly innovative, including historic district legislation, revolving loan funds for restoration work, adaptive reuse of buildings and a system of legal preservation covenants. Author John Borden Armstrong has painstakingly reconstructed the story of this historical community. " ; 320 pages .
