Product Description
Columbus, Ohio, ìan odd amalgam of the planned and the spontaneous,î was founded on the banks of the Scioto River in 1812 as the new seat of this young stateís government. Located in the wilderness of central Ohio, nearly equidistant to the ìrealî cities of Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Toledo, Columbus experienced 100 years of unprecedented growth from which it would emerge the stateís capital in more than title alone. Today, it is Ohioís largest city. ÝÝForgotten Columbus features many people, places, and events that defined this burgeoning 19th and early-20th century city. And above all, the placesññfrom the Old Ohio Penitentiary, to Fort Hayes, to the recently revitalized Brewery Districtññwhich either no longer exist, or have changed so dramatically over the years that they are barely recognizable. Residents and visitors alike will find this a fascinating, insightful, and at times surprising look back at a forgotten era in Columbusís history. ÝÝ

His work has received both local and national acclaim. Join him on this photographic glimpse into the lost and forgotten history of a great American city.
