Chronicling the rich social history of Cheltenham Township, this book highlights its evolution since its founding in 1687 by Quaker settlers seeking religious freedom. Notable figures like abolitionist Lucretia Mott and the township's role as a Civil War camp are featured, alongside anecdotes about local enterprises, including an ice cream empire, and the early life of baseball legend Reggie Jackson. Through engaging vignettes, historian Donald Scott Sr. honors the unique contributions and architectural heritage of this influential community near Philadelphia.
