Chris Mathias (who penned Images of America, Nahant with Ken Turino) has written a new book with Nahant photographer, Robert Wilson.
Nahant Revisited examines Nahant thematically through over 200 images. It covers the transformation of East Point from an 1823 resort to the public park it is today and shares many moments of the wealthy Bostonians who enjoyed Nahant as a summer colony.
Many images illustrate full-time residents who invested their lives here participating in a rich civic life. Work, play, and entertainment are documented, as well as social issues of yesterday and today.
