What's even more incredible about this book than the first "Philadelphia Murals" - is that they found even more spectacular murals - enough to fill a second book!!! And the stories that go with these murals are as heart-felt as the murals themselves!!!

Treat yourself to this book - well, both books - it is a present you won't ever regret!!! I wish I could buy them for you - I wish I had enough money to buy them for everyone!!!

Beautifully written with gorgeous pictures! A terrific gift or perfect for your coffee table... I had no idea the City's mural arts program was about so much more than art, it is about imroving the lives of the city's youth by beautifying their environment, keeping them off the streets, and providing a constant in often disrupted lives.

This book offers a fantastic tease of a mere few of the outstanding, awe inspiring murals that this organization has produced. It makes me want to hit the streets of Philly to see them up close!

I love seeing these as I travel around and I thought I had seen all of them how wrong I was, buy the book and see what you have missed out seeing.
It is a great gift to some one new to the city in my view.
