Wolfert's Roost Reprinted

Wolfert's Roost- a "labor of love, first published in 1971 by a talented and dedicated group of Irvington residents, has become a classic in and about our village."

Since it was first published to commemorate Irvington's 125th year anniversary, Wolfert's Roost has been reprinted twice due to popular demand.

Limited copies of this lovely book, full of photos and reminiscences of Irvington and its people from 1682 through the 1960's are still available for purchase at the Irvington Public Library. Copies are $25.00 each. All proceeds will benefit the Irvington Public Library. To purchase a copy, please stop at the Library, or call 591-7840.
