Well, I should say a "Should-Have Book". Judith Boss's Pictorial History of Fall River is now on eBay. This is a soft cover (I didn't know it was done in soft cover), with like a $9.99 starting bid. The Item # is: 200013576313
Plenty of great photos, along with the history of FR by decade written in brief chapters. Highly recommend.
As you mention above, it is a must have if you are from Fall River or need a good brief reference about Fall River history. Ms Boss covers quite a bit of material. Very well done. Many photos. Hard book to come by also.
I have the hardcover version too. I got mine off eBay a year or so ago for $55. It's autographed. I didn't know they did a softcover edition. When I was researching at the FRHS, Michael Martins recommended I get this book if I had the chance.
