4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Deep in the Heart of BrooklynBy Victor FortezzaAs a lifelong resident of Brooklyn; I looked forward to Mr. Dittas book. I was not disappointed. Gravesend; Brooklyn is part of the Arcadia Publishing Then and Now series. From its handsome cover; through its nearly 100 pages; to its sepia-like rear cover; it offers a wonderful pictorial history of a large swath of the Borough of Churches. With great care; Mr. Ditta places photos of the same tract (before and after); on each page. The accompanying text is clear; concise and free of error. What fun it was to see areas I visit or pass through regularly as they were long ago. How fascinating that several structures still exist; albeit in altered form. I was reminded of how enthralled I was by the pictures on display in the Daniel George Funeral Home; which showed what the Gravesend Bay waterfront was like before the construction of the Belt Parkway. Anyone who has a fondness for Brooklyn; as Mr. Ditta obviously does; will enjoy this book. How sweet it is - fuhgeddaboutit!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
