The Parrys of Philadelphia and New Hope: A Quaker Family's Lasting Impact on Two Historic Towns by Roy Ziegler
The book is a history rather than a biography focusing on Randolph Parry and his son Oliver, presenting a fair amount of background and surrounding information as well. The Parry's, influential industrialists and developers of New Hope, PA and the Spring Garden neighborhood of Philadelphia, are presented as stalwart and admirable, no skeletons revealed here. The book does present insight into the lifestyle of the wealthy, 1850 to 1930 or so, along with transportation between New Hope and show more Philly over that span. show less
