Between the years of 1940 and 1960; Tonawanda and North Tonawanda virtually redefined themselves. The waning lumber industry gave way to manufacturing that accommodated first the war effort and then postwar market demands. After the war; men and women returned to family life; and the baby boom began. New homes; new schools; and new roads were built to serve the burgeoning population; meanwhile; local industries expanded; and new businesses took root. Well-paying jobs were plentiful; as were consumer goods such as televisions; modern appliances; and cars. Community pride was evident; with volunteers swelling the ranks of fire companies; churches; and service clubs. Downtown had dozens of shops; department stores; restaurants; and entertainment venues such as the Riviera and Melody Fair. Tonawanda and North Tonawanda: 1940-1960 celebrates the American Dream; an era when teenagers were rocking and rolling at school dances and hanging out at Zefferys the Sugar Bowl; and Pee Wees Pizzeria.

Reporters knowledgeable impression of the most critical issue of our day - sequelBy Eyad KadriI read this book in hard copy; but decided to acquire it in the electronic version.The book gives a fresh and unbiased look at the most critical political issue of our times. The author deals with all parties equally and objectively.He exposes the political undercurrent agenda concealing it by the all times deviousness of peoples exploitation of religion; which is the easiest way to amass followers through inflamed faith-based emotions of belonging and fear; bypassing logic and rational thinking. Similar to what we see the reaction of the politically motivated religiously under covered Islamic what so called terrorism today; and elements of Christian terrorism.The author analyses the issue from his perspective and brings the reality of another kind of terrorism that impacts the livelihood of people through incriminations and corruption to neutralize any descending voices.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful.
