Archiestown: The Way it Was compiled by Anne Oliver

Archiestown in the early 20th century was full of hardworking, fun-loving characters. It was however an isolated community where water came from pumps in the street. This is their story.
The proceeds from this publication will go to the Khuyu Water Project in Malawi so that they too can have a village pump.

Elgin: The Story of the High Street and Closes by Mary Byatt

A compelling read for architecture lovers and history buffs.
