Denison University Presents Granville, Ohio (Images Of America Series) By Alexa Mcdonough And Theresa Overholser

In 1805, A Group Of Citizens From Massachusetts And Connecticut Braved Treacherous Travel Conditions To Settle A New Village In The Heart Of Ohio. Like The Welsh Pioneers Who Arrived In The Area A Few Years Earlier, These Industrious New Englanders Found Abundant Natural Resources To Sustain Themselves As They Erected Buildings, Planted Crops, And Platted A Town. The Result Of Their Hard Work Was The Village Of Granville, A Beautiful And Productive Community That Continues To Adapt And Thrive In The 21St Century. Downtown Granville Has Evolved Into A Popular Tourist Destination, And Denison University, Founded In The 1830S As The Granville Literary And Theological Institution, Has Become An Elite And Respected College Of Liberal Arts And Sciences.
