Birth of the Bronx,
By Joseph S. Maresca "Dr. Joseph S. Maresca CPA,... (Bronxville, New York USA) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Birth of the Bronx , 1609-1900 (Life in the Bronx Series, Vol. 4) (Hardcover)
This is an excellent work for local history buffs. It depictsLouis Reese-the Chief Engineer of the Grand Concourse. Maps show the Jerome Park Race Track. A section shows the widening of Kingsbridge Road during 1890. Residential frame houses on West Farms are shown. The Bronx Zoo is depicted in a famous 1899 scene. The Schwab House of 1857 is shown together with rows of small residential homes in the Village of Tremont. The book provides excellent nostalgia for all New Yorkers, as well as USA history enthusiasts. |
