This history of Cohasset was constructed from old maps and records, the reconstruction of traditions and reminiscences, the collection of historical relics and the search through old deeds and wills, enrollments and registers. It begins with the earliest geological and geographical information, progresses through the changes from Indian occupation to the settlement of the pioneers, and marks the development and growth of towns and industries and the effects of The Revolutionary War, the War of 1812 and the Civil War on the area. The development of local industry, churches and civil services warrant additional coverage. An appendix covers the botany of the town. An everyname index provides easy access to information and many illustrations, including maps, highlight the text.
