Hillman, Jim

Expanding from a foreword written by Franklin mayor Fred Paris and concluding with a chapter introduction by Franklin Heritage executive director Rob Shilts, authors Jim Hillman--a longtime Johnson County resident--and John Murphy explore Franklin's past through more than 200 rare images. Many of these photographs are from the archives of the Johnson County Museum of History. Hillman and Murphy previously collaborated on four Images of America series books: Indianapolis Social Clubs (2009), Indiana's Catholic Religious Communities (2009), Greenwood (2010), and Beech Grove (2011).
