Since its settlement in 1639, the town now known as Wakefield has enjoyed a rich and varied history. Wakefield Revisited celebrates the personality of this community. Featured are some of the town�s most unforgettable characters; from 19th-century house painter Franklin Poole, who captured the town�s character in a myriad of rare, precise oil paintings, to the fascinating strong women who played a major role in forging the personality of Wakefield. In these pages, the reader will visit nearly forgotten landmarks, buildings, and sites and rediscover the long-lost businesses and industries that made Wakefield �the most enterprising community north of Boston.� Capping it all will be images of celebrations, from Grand Army of the Republic marches to the high school relocation procession to the town�s trademark Fourth of July parade, which has evolved into the largest Independence Day parade in Massachusetts.
