Autorenporträt
In this volume Kamp brings forth several previously unpublished photographs, including images of Beatrice Gloucester's candy shop, Goodale's Airship, Mrs. Kimball's School for Girls, and elephants marching down Main Street in an old-fashioned circus parade. Mr. Kamp also relives several tragic moments in Worcester history, from the train wreck at Barber's Crossing to the Park (Franklin) Street and Knowles building fires that leveled Notre Dame Church and nearly destroyed the beautiful downtown.
