Grace Goulder Izant spent the last six decades of her long and productive life in Hudson, Ohio, and this, her final book, was the one that lay closest to her heart. Bringing to it her knowledge as a historian of Ohio, she lifts the story beyond the limitations of local history and makes it illuminate an entire region and time. An epilogue culled from a talk is a charming narrative of her own arrival in Hudson in the 1920s and the subsequent changes she observed and participated in during the next half-century. Illustrated with numerous historical photographs and drawings from her private collection, this edition preserves the enduring quality and historical heritage of this quaint village.
