Synopsis "Glastenbury: The History of a Vermont Ghost Town"
Founded by a famously scheming New Hampshire governor, Glastenbury struggled for over a century to break triple digits in population. A small charcoal-making industry briefly flourished after the Civil War, yet by 1920 Glastenbury counted fewer than twenty inhabitants. The end came officially in 1937, when the state, following a spirited debate, formally disincorporated the town. Yet Glastenbury s legacy lives on in Tyler Resch s lively and amusing history. Follow Resch as he chronicles the community s compelling, if always precarious, existence. From mysterious murders and curious development schemes to the township s eventual annexation by the U.S. Forest Service, Glastenbury narrates the ultimately redemptive tale of a community that lost its political status, only to gain a national forest."
