MaasNot too helpful for current travelers unless you relish pictures of many building no longer existing.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Creative Way to Step Back in Time to Historical Savannah.By S. GladskiMy friend and I are planning a trip this year to experience the rich history of Savannah. When I learned about this book I thought it would be perfect to take along with us; so I bought two! The author provides a brief description and dates as to when the hotels and businesses in the postcards were built and occupied; and if they were destroyed; what has taken their place. A great tool for a walking tour of the City. I love the occasional glimpse into the past when the author describes what the sender wrote on the card; and where they were sending it. I found myself wrapped up in the history; and read it cover-to-cover right away. A clever; well-written book by someone that obviously knows and appreciates Savannah.

She has always been interested in exploring the history of the cities where she currently lived; and because of her; I became interested in the city and the part it played in Southern history. After looking at several local history books; this one was by far the best. The postcards are fascinating in themselves; but the historical explanations of the pictures and their significance in the development of Savannah illustrate the incredible amount of research done by the author. Every postcard tells a story. I had no intention of buying a book about Savannah; but this one was irresistible. Its a book youll want to keep and look at many times over.
