PHYLLIS A. DUPERE, local historian and retired high school teacher, takes delight in learning new things. Through a plethora of photographs and brief commentaries, the author offers readers an opportunity to reflect on how these brief moments in time affected the town, their families, and themselves in this constantly changing world. Never letting go of her calling to be an educator, Ms. Dupere has most recently authored
Somerset Through Time, and previously wrote a book on Seekonk, Massachusetts, and an appendix article on Native American-based recipes. She continues to seek photographs taken in neighboring communities for future
Through Time books.
