Based on a large collection of letters written in 1890 by Dr. Will Gray who, broke and in love, had left his fiancé "Anna" in Iowa while he came west to establish a medical practice, the book tells the story of Boom-time Fairhaven and the cultural legacy that he left here ending with his only daughter Margaret, an iconic and adored local drama teacher.  Gray arrived in Fairhaven at the height of the Boom, was the first tenant in the Mason Building, and watched the completion of the Fairhaven Hotel.  Join us for an evening of local history.   To order the book online, click "Add to Cart" for more information click on the title below.
