The Hocking Hills is a term given to the area in southeastern Ohio located predominately in Hocking County. Millions of tourists visit the valley each year to experience the primary feature of the Hocking Hills: the beautiful and historic cave system that stands today as it has for eons. From 1900 to 1950; the caves were a popular subject for postcard images; and town and country residents who lived and worked in this area were captured on vintage postcards. Residents created their own entertainment; and Main Street parades; the county fair; holidays; patriotic events; and family gatherings were celebrated and recorded with penny postcards.

A little disappointedBy ParkSome interesting stories about the Titanic passengers; such as how a fashionably attired apprentice dressmaker was mistaken for a first class passenger upon rescue and provided a cabin on the Carpathia before being booted out when her steerage status was discovered! But I was too disappointed in the selection of illustrations to give more stars. I was surprised there werent photos of actual passengers; besides Lucile; to display their attire and that 10 and 20 year old gowns were prominently featured.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Dont buy it for the picturesBy act2reduxI had hoped this book would have way more pictures of the female passengers than it did. Im a costumer of sorts and bought it for reference purposes. It did turn out to be a fairly interesting book overall; but definitely a disappointment for my purposes. I sure wish there had been a "see inside" thing on this one- I"d have saved my money.....ah well; such is life6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Not a Pictorial Fashion BookBy BarsinisterIf you are looking for a book filled with photos or illustrations of the fashions of the Titanic era you will not find them in this book. There are a few photos of existing garments but not very many; the information is presented in text rather than visually.
