The towns include Plymouth, Wareham, Pembroke, Kingston, Lakeville, Marion, Rochester, Hanson, Duxbury, Mattapoisett, Hanover, Scituate and South Scituate, Carver, Abington, South Abington, Rockland, Ancient Bridgewater, Brockton, Bridgewater, East Bridgewater, West Bridgewater, Middleboro, Hingham, Plympton, Halifax, Marshfield and Hull. An index of the biographical sketches and a list of illustrations provide easy access to information. Over one hundred portraits of important individuals and places highlight the text.
