EBSCO Publishing commissioned artist Alan Pearsall to paint the history of Ipswich on a 2700 sq. ft. mural at the Riverwalk, behind the EBSCO complex. Having done extensive research for the mural, they then commissioned him to write, illustrate and design American Town, a 200-page coffee-table-style book called American Town, as a companion to the mural.
American Town is an illustrated depiction of life in rural Ipswich, Massachusetts from the 1600s to today. Beautifully illustrated by the artist and author with photos and original art, the book takes the reader from its Native American origin, through war times and the booming industrial age.
