American Chronicles Historic Chronicles of Genesee County, (Paperback)

Discover the Beautiful Valley's Harrowing Past/

Genesee County has seen trials, tribulations and triumphs throughout its storied history as national events have been brought to its doorstep. Cold War anxiety was on full display in the preparedness drills of the 1950s and the effect those had on Batavia's studnets. Too often overlooked, the scourge of racism has reared its ugly head in the region, as the Ku Klux Klan once had a presence in the county. Locals were rocked by the assassinations of MLK and John F. Kennedy in the 1960s. Genesee women from acitivists to farmers have left an indelible mark on the county's past. Join author and historian Michael Eula as he reveals historic chronicles of Genesee County.
