Ipswich Books & Pamphlets (Some Old, Some Newer)

There are many volumes of books about Ipswich, its people, its houses and almost any other subject you could find.  The Ipswich Historical Society headed by Thomas Franklin Waters from about 1890 to 1920 published a new booklet or book nearly every year. (Publications of the Ipswich Historical Society)  For your information I have listed as many of their volumes as I knew and other ones I own as well  in my Bibliography.

The following list of books are part of my collection.  I hope that they will be informative as well as enjoyable.  Some are scanned and others are picture images.
