What Do We Want History to Do to Us?

Up the Not So Lazy River, Life at Head of the Tide and City Point

Gary Stuckey, Belfast museum volunteer and a passionate historian, takes us on a journey up the Passagassawaukeag River to explore the industries, dams, and buildings that once made for thriving communities. With maps, historical references, photographs, and first-person accounts, Gary transports us back in time to discover the secrets of life at Head of the Tide and City Point. Recorded on May 22, 2023 at the Belfast Free Library.
