Plymouth at the Crossroads:

Changes in Rural America

​​Crossroads can be funny things. Sometimes they loom in your path, requiring you to make a choice before you can move on. Other times you may not realize it was a crossroads until looking back in retrospect and realize that decisions at that given moment changed everything. 

​

Take a look back at Plymouth's history through the frame of crossroads and how they impacted the town and how Plymouth has avoided some of the pitfalls of being considered a rural town.

Seacoast New Hampshire's Contribution

Through photographs, recordings, and personal narratives, Charlie, an early member of the Seacoast Jazz Society, paints a colorful picture of the growth and development of this significant American art form in New Hampshire from the 1950s to the present day.
