In a presentation of his new book, Marsh, Billings, Rockefeller in Woodstock, Glenn Suokko shares the story of three families and the impact they had on forging a greater environmental consciousness, as well as the role they played in shaping our current framework for preserving and cherishing natural beauty.



In a concise reading and through his own photography and historic photographs from the Billings Family Archives, Suokko provides a unique tour of the Mansion, art collection, formal flower gardens, and forest at Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park and the working dairy farm and agricultural history museum at Billings Farm & Museum.



Please join us for this story of one of Vermont’s inspiring places. A reception follows the presentation.



Organized by The Yankee Bookshop; a portion of proceeds from the sales of Marsh, Billings, Rockefeller in Woodstock at this event are given to support the Norman Williams Public Library.



Glenn Suokko is an author, photographer, designer, and artist. He lives and works in Woodstock, Vermont.
