The book is authored by Thomas L. Lentz who has lived in Killingworth since 1966. He is a founding member of the Killingworth Historical Society, Historian of the Congregational Church, and Municipal Historian. All proceeds from the sale of this book go to the Killingworth Historical Society to support its preservation activities on behalf of Killingworth.
