5.0 out of 5 stars Looking at the Past!, July 23, 2008
This review is from: Old Philadelphia in Early Photographs 1839-1914 (Paperback)
When I bought this book, I was doing research on Philadelphia's past for my own pleasure. This book has beautiful black and white postcards of the city's architecture. The history of the city is told in those photographs. The book is quite useful for those of us who have special interests in Philadelphia or in architecture of the past hundreds of years. The book is well-done and would look great on any coffee table. Not only is it a great read but it is great to be looked and enjoyed by any enthusiast.
