David Corbin and John Galluzzo have both grown up on the history of the Massachusetts South Shore, each earning a bachelor's degree in history from the state university system. Corbin, a former social studies teacher, now serves as the Scituate Historical Society's Grand Army Hall Committee chairman, guiding the preservation program for the community's oldest public building. Galluzzo is the executive director of the Scituate Historical Society and the coauthor of three other Arcadia books. With Then and Now: Scituate, their first collaborative effort, the authors ask you to join them in discovering the beauty of the town and in learning the Scituate secrets that have kept visitors coming back for hundreds of years.
