To borrow an image from a sage historian, York County, Pa.’s story is a stream that bears the things that historians record – pivotal events, breakthrough achievements and regrettable misjudgments. James McClure’s expanded and updated “Never To Be Forgotten” tells the story of this stream but also takes a keen interest in what is happening of the stream’s banks – York countians just living their lives, building homes, raising families, making things and growing communities. The general history of this southcentral Pennsylvania county shows - with concise writing and more than 250 pictures - a community that is working hard at getting better - a place and people that are building on a worthy past honed with strong hands, smart minds and kind hearts and heading toward a future with a sense of its promise.
Jim McClure is a retired editor of the York Daily Record and is the author of books on York County history.
