When people think of Bradford in any historical sense, they think of oil and the remarkable effect that it has had on the community. The discovery of black gold in the late 1870s literally erased the earlier image of a backwoods lumber town and firmly established Bradford as a place of millionaires and mansions, people and progress. This latter image is so strong, however, that a very important part of the history of Bradford is often overlooked a phenomenon that this volume strives to correct.Each photograph is from the collection of the Bradford Landmark Society, and many of these pictures have never before been published. Covering the era from the late 1850s to the mid-1940s, Around Bradford focuses on a time that people regard with fondness and hold firmly in their memories. We can never hear what those Bradfordians heard and we can never feel what they felt, but we can see what they saw through photographs."

Around Bradford Volume II further looks at the history of the area as it has not been seen before. Once one of the largest cities in Pennsylvania, Bradford relied heavily on oil production in the 1880s for its success. Author Sally Ryan Costik allows us to glimpse into the "Age of Innocence" at the turn of the century before she endeavors to examine the city's own tumultuous past. In the 1920s, it was home to KKK activity, gangster slayings, and mob retaliation--events that contrast sharply with the images of Sunday school, industrial growth, and high society from "Millionaires Row" found in this collection. In the years following the Roaring Twenties, Costik takes a unique look at the Depression era through the eyes of sports fans. She chronicles Bradford's baseball team through the decade as they played within the PONY league circuit (comprised of Pennsylvania, Ontario, and New York). No history of Bradford would be complete without giving mention to the Bradfordians who supported the war effort on the home front.

This intriguing collection of over 200 photographs and postcards covers Bradford-on-Avon and the surrounding villages of Turleigh, Winsley, Limpley Stoke, Freshford, Avoncliff, Ilford, Westwood and Farleigh Hungerford. Each picture illustrates everyday life in and around Bradford-on-Avon during the last century. From snapshots of shops, pubs and hotel's along the Market Street, including Albert Mayell's china and greengrocery business and Albert Scrine's Colonial Meat company in 1906, to vistas of the local churches, horse-drawn vans and rubber mills standing on the banks of the River Avon, which recall the industrial heritage of this area of Wiltshire during the nineteenth century, as well as events such as street carnivals and the flooding river. This volume shows a variety of scenes which will doubtless prove invaluable for all who know Bradford-on-Avon and remember the are before many of the changes took place, while offering a fascinating glimpse into the past for newcomers to this historic region.
