Review
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Abington. Mass.By Nancy E. KaneThere are some pretty good photos in the book. However. the organization did not seem to extend beyond the main divisions. The photos are in no chronological order. alphabetical. or any other order I could discern. I WAS pleased to find photos of the metropolis of "downtown" North Abington as I remember it. Its disappointing that there was no mention of the library being in the Standish Building. which it was for some years.
