The Lost Villages of Scituate Ri

I enjoyed the photos of the houses and farms that disappeared due to progress . Reading about the communities was fascinating.

Buy the book if this subject interests you. But for the love of god, skip the 'tour' Raymond offers. It's a bus ride with his mothers bad poetry being uncomfortably read to you over a PA system. Pointing at rocks where something USED to be, from a block away. He's very knowledgable on the subject, it's just not well suited to a tour.

The book has a poem written by someone who had to leave their town due to a dam/ watershed being built. It has photos of the 5 towns that were flooded.
