New Novel Chronicles the Journey of Irish and Italian Immigrants in 1880s Milford

There’s a new novel out about the lives of Irish and Italian immigrants in Milford in the 1880s. “The Remembering: Of Leather & Stone” by Charles Paul Collins follows the lives of two men as they navigate Milford while working toward the American Dream, one in boot-making, the other in stone-cutting. The Milford Historical Commission says it took Collins three years to write the book as he researched his own family history as well Milford’s. You can buy it at the Milford Historical Commission as well as on Amazon.
