By LW (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Portland Then and Now (Then & Now) (Hardcover)

This review is from: Portland Then and Now (Then & Now) (Hardcover)
What an interesting idea it was to take current pictures from the same angle as old photos of Portland. The book is well done and anyone who has lived in Portland and enjoys history will love this book
