A township in its own right since 1711, Warminster has been at the forefront of American history for centuries. Rev. William Tennent's Log College, John Fitch's steamboat, and Johnsville's Naval Air Development Center all figure prominently into its historical record. From the beginning, Warminster's people tilled the land, educated their children, established businesses, and contributed to their community and the world at large. Today Warminster is a thriving commercial hub, and its legacy of growth and development continues.

Bordered by the Delaware River and dotted by dozens of delightful 18th-century towns and villages, Bucks County retains a wistful air of long ago. Covered bridges, colonial homes, classic farmsteads, and a breathtaking countryside are only part of this beautiful county's story. In 1683, Pennsylvania's founder, William Penn, established his manor here and helped build a nation by inviting industrious immigrants to its fertile soil. In 1776, Gen. George Washington launched one of the most important battles of the Revolutionary War from its shores. Farmers harnessed the land for centuries, followed by writers, artists, and innovators who weaved its charms into their work for the world. Bucks County features photographs from area historical societies and collectors that capture the spirit of the everyday life, as well as the extraordinary people and events, that helped shape one of the most distinctive places in America.
