Vermont Voices, 1609 Through the 1990s:
A Documentary History of the Green Mountain State

by J. Kevin Graffagnino

Pioneer settlers and Abenaki Indians, royal governors and Green Mountain Boys, farmers and inventors, women's suffrage and temperance activists, soldiers, politicians, and religious leaders, map makers and cartoonists--these are some of the Vermonters whose voices have sounded throughout the state's history.

Comprised of more than 150 documents, 16 full-page illustrations, and 11 brief essays, Vermont Voices presents the length and breadth of Vermont's past primarily in Vermonters' own words. These lively readings encompass all of the significant social, economic, and political themes in the state's 400-year history, from the Abenaki origins myth and the Vermont constitution up to present-day debates about development and tourism. They show how Vermont has been shaped by the general currents of American history, but also how it has retained a distinctive identity.

Vermont Voices is designed to be a teaching tool, a reference book, and an all-around good read for anyone interested in the history of the Green Mountain State. It provides a thorough introduction to the people, places, and events that have made Vermont what it is today.
