Did you know that the Wizard himself from the "Wizard of Oz" was a former Pound Ridger? That the high school created a big brouhaha in the 1940s? That The Inn at Pound Ridge was a palooza watering hole for such characters as Tallulah Bankhead and Jackie Gleason? Read on!
POUND RIDGE PAST -- with graphic design by Gina Federico and photography by Fran Collin -- features stories about town carnivals, one-room school houses, air-raid drills during World War II, harrowing ice-, snow- and rainstorms, cocktail parties among the journalist and advertising set, and lots more about life in this American town from the rural 1920s to the swinging 1970s.
