A Village in the Sixties (Virtual Presentation) 

About

What happens to a family when it loses its farm? What happens to a village when it loses its school? Kevin Fenton's presentation, based on his memoir Leaving Rollingstone, explores not just his story but the fate of his family, their farm, and a remarkable village just forty miles west of Rochester. 

Leaving Rollingstone, set in a time of major social change, is a portrait of the inevitability of loss and the power of choice, about how a big-city ad man and novelist reclaimed the enduring values and surprising vitality of his small-town boyhood. This book is available in the History Center gift shop.
