5.0 out of 5 stars It brings a smile to your face and tugs at your heartstrings, March 23, 2001
This review is from: Smile: A Picture History of Olympic Park, 1887-1965 (Paperback)
Olympic Park was more than an amusement park with a big swimming pool. It was an experience shared by countless people who had a personal and often emotional attachment to it. This book brings back vivid memories and captures the essence of a time and place that will never be again.

I would give anything to recapture what I had then as I did not know what I had lost until it was gone.
