From Abenaki petroglyphs and the first known African American poet Lucy Terry Prince, to Nobel Laureates like Saul Bellow, Jody Williams and Rudyard Kipling, these surprising, artistic, community-created audio stories link places to people to create a unique Vermont experience exploring America’s most storied small town!

Also in conjunction with the Brattleboro Words Trail, the book Print Town: Brattleboro’s Legacy of Words was published. With concise history and brilliant photographs, it is a compendium of Brattleboro’s printing, publishing, and literary history from the 1700’s to the present. Available at area bookstores and libraries.
