Picture
The Cow That Tried to Swallow a Potato - that’s the history of Worcester, Vermont.  Life happened, and often it was quirky and interesting.  No big battles, no national movements, no spectacular event - just the everyday lives of hard-working Vermonters trying to get by, and from time to time, producing some noteworthy and unconventional history. 

"The Cow that Tried to Swallow a Potato:  A Quirky History of Worcester, Vermont" may be ordered by sending a check for twenty-five dollars to the Worcester Historical Society, P.O. Box 329, Worcester, Vermont 05682.

Great Christmas gifts and a genealogist' goldmine, these 360 pages of memories, pictures and historical information is not like any other local history you have ever read.
