Bethlehem; Pennslyvania; has a fascinating history that is steeped in tradition. The city was founded in 1741 by the Moravians; a Protestant group. They envisioned Bethlehem as an industrial center; a support center for missionaries; and as the headquaters for the Moravian Church in North America. Bethlehem became all of this and more. Moravian traditions are still strong in this town; from the preservation of the original stone buildings on Church Street to the sounds of the Trombone Choir on Easter morning. Yet with the arrival of industrialists and immigrants to the area; Bethlehem evolved into something more. Canals; railroads; steel mills; and silk mills all became part of the city story. The little town grew into a city with a diverse population. In the process; Bethlehem eveolved into a graceful place; famous for its institutions of higher learning; for steel production; and for Bach. Bethlehem covers the period between 1845 through 1990. It is a reinterpretation of teh photograph exhibit that graced the windows of the Bethlehem Area Public Library during the citys 250th anniversary celebration. The original exhibit consisted of 350 photographs; selected from more than 600 submitted by area residents. This book includes a selection of 217 photographs from that exhibit.

I have read most f it already. and I find it to be VERY informative. I have been in the film industry for almost 10 years now and I am impressed to see how much information is in this manual.They have pictures of a lot of the forms. contracts and legal documents you will need to get stuff done. You can easily emulate them on Microsoft Word. The only thing that would make this book better would be to include photocopyable versions of these documents.The producers who wrote this book produced SWINGERS and KISSING JESSICA STEIN. If you havent seen them recently or ever. I suggest you pick them up as supplemental material.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. I love the BOOKBy JimMcQuaidI love the BOOK. However. the CD bound into the book DOES NOT contain content for this book. Apparently the publisher got a bunch of discs labelled for this book but with some kind of astronomy software content. YIKES!!!! I hate to return the book in order to get another (probably wrong) disc but I will try it once. Major publisher screwup for an otherwise fantastic resource.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. This is a must have for any serious film maker ...By L.
