Nice overview of the city of Terre Haute,
By
This review is from: Terre Haute, Wabash River City (Windsor History Series) (Hardcover)
110 pages, including Table of Contents and a very useful index. For some reason, Amazon.com did not list the ISBN number: 0-89781-089-9. The book is profusely illustrated with photos from the Martin Photo archives (a local photographer) and the Vigo County Historical Society, as well as historical drawings and a copy of the original town plat.The book includes some pre-Terre Haute history and an overview of the founding of the city and it's founders and early settlers. There are some critical events in Terre Haute history mentioned, and it lists many key individuals who were the movers and shakers throughout Terre Haute history. Also very useful is the Suggested Reading chapter. The author is a Terre Haute native and has long been active in the study of Terre Haute history and genealogy. Overall, a very useful, informative, and entertaining overview, but not a lot of text, so the other readings mentioned in the book should be explored to learn more.

The book was clearly illustrated with wonderful pictures of the town. I was looking for more specific info on the early settlers.
