Book Launch Party
Happenings for 2019
Coming April 8 !
The Gladstone Historical Society is proud to announce their newest book, "Images of America - Gladstone". Published by Arcadia Publishing and the History Press, the book will be released to a nation-wide audience on April 8, 2019. Written by Kim Argraves Huey, who grew up in Gladstone and serves as the current historian for the Gladstone Historical Society, this new book traces Gladstone's history from the earliest fur trappers to the founding of the town, and features over 200 vintage and many never-before-seen photos dating from 1861 to 1955. The book also includes Indian lore, stories of the settlers, historical first events, the coming of the railroads, Gladstone's big war, and the great Chautauqua. Did you know that Isadora Duncan danced on the streets of Gladstone? Also featured are anecdotes of Gladstone’s famous visitors, local heroes, residents, and the notorious Gladstone Roadhouse! "Images of America - Gladstone" retails for $21.99 and is available from the Gladstone Historical Society. For more information on how to pre-order or purchase this book, click here.
