What an amazing piece of historical scholarship! Lukesh has woven together so much, from the histories of those pictured in her family’s actual Cartes de Visite album, to the history of their houses, their impacts on the industries of New Bedford, and so much more. All of it is carefully sourced and cited, often with additional information on the source. So, in effect, Frozen in Time is a new reference work on early New Bedford, tying together every conceivable repository of relevant information. Bravo, Ms. Lukesh!
