Profusely illustrated with black-and-white photographs. "The Academy's story begins in the winter of 1797, towards the end of George Washington's presidency. Nineteen men from Deerfield and surrounding towns met to plan the founding of an Academy at Deerfield. Among them were John Williams, Esq., grandson of the Reverend John Williams, a prosperous merchant who exported masts and staves to the West Indies; Seth Catlin, a tavern keeper and breeder of fine horses, known for his urbanity and integrity; Joseph Stebbins, a Revolutionary War hero, prominent in civic affairs; and Joseph Barnard, builder of the Manse. Ten years earlier, these men had been part of an unofficial corporation, "The Proprietors of the New School," which established a third school on the town street. This small school is the direct ancestor of Deerfield Academy." - from the inner front jacket flap. Champney, James Wells (jacket illustration, The Deerfield Common 1877); Moorhead, Robert (book design) (illustratore).
