In 2001, Kansas City Star Books published Kansas City : Then & Now to wide public acclaim. Now, more than 10,000 copies later, Star Books' author and history editor Monroe Dodd has compiled the second edition of this great collection. Combing through local archives, Dodd selected scores of rare photographs from the Kansas City's past, many of them previously unpublished. He then photographed the same scenes as they appear today. From street corners to hillsides, from the tops of buildings and from the air - you'll see Kansas City as you've rarely seen it before.
