Images of America: Abington by Sharon Orcutt Peters presents an illustrated portrait of what it was like to live and work in the town during the 19th and 20th centuries. Abington was founded and built around the mills, and then grew with the times to become a focal point for the thriving shoe industry. The book shows how throughout history, its central location between Boston and Plymouth shaped Abington forever.

Author Sharon Orcutt Peters is a member of the Abington Historical Commission and a resident of Abington. She is also a freelance writer who has produced works pertaining to South Shore history.

The book retails for $19.99 (Massachusetts residents please add 5% sales tax) – a portion of which goes directly to support our programs. Books purchased from the Dyer are signed by the author. Please contact us to place your order.
