This slim volume offers a historical overview of the town of Hafford (located in Saskatchewan's Rural Municipality of Redberry #435). The book's seven chapters are written by three Hafford and District History Committee members: Peter J. Oschipok, Margaret Lommer, and Morris W. Holota. The first chapters cover settlement and pioneer life in the area, while later chapters discuss local churches, schools, and businesses as well as the Hafford Union Hospital. A short photograph section appears at the volume's middle. Individual family histories are not included, although the authors identify both early settlers and then-contemporary community figures (especially business owners). An alphabetized list of [pioneer?] residents concludes the volume. No publication date indicated, but the title makes a publication date of 1963 or later likely.
