5.0 out of 5 stars Stairways to Heaven, March 22, 2011
This review is from: The Steps of Pittsburgh: Portrait of a City (Paperback)
The title of this book is not so great, it should have been called "Stairways to Heaven" because every stairway in Pittsburgh is like walking up the steps to the golden gates of heaven. Bob Regan is a genius. I enjoyed every thought that was conveyed. Sometimes I felt like he was in my head. The Steps of Pittsburgh will always lead you to awesome.
