This updated and revised book covers the gamut of Union County's history. It begins with the region's earliest days when the Delaware Indians were in residence, and the arrival of settlers who ventured into this frontier area from Berks and Lancaster counties marked the beginning of major changes. Synder's text, first published in 1976, has been expanded and updated to reflect newly discovered material on such groups as the Amish and the developments in Union County up to 2000.

Distributed by Penn State University Press by arrangement with the Union County Historical Society.
