An individual work on its own of stories from a Central New York community’s past as a tool for documenting a community’s history and providing a sense of its identity, values, and historical place, together, these two are the first published collection of accounts of Homer’s past. This work represents a heritage in which a community can find common ground amid differences and lessons for today and offers inspiration for veteran and emerging public historians.
