Well worth it!By MenckenThe Images of America series is an incredible assemblage of photographically driven history books about Cities and Towns from the very large to the very small. Theyre written with the cooperation of local historical societies and have a depth of material Ive never seen in other books. If youve got any interest in seeing the early days and evolution of your area or an area you grew up in; I highly recommend these books. Theyre great for gifts!!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy songbirdingranbygift for dad
