Extrait : "Le 16 avril 1876; jour de Pâques; de Béhérah vient mouiller devant le port du Pirée. Il doit repartir le même jour; pour Alexandrie; mais en faisant escale à Rhodes. Nous allons grossir le nombre de ses passagers. Le Pirée est dans une fiévreuse agitation. En effet; quelques jours auparavant; une frégate russe; venant dÉgypte; a manqué lentrée du port et sest piteusement échouée au rivage."

A great resourceBy The Reviewer Formerly Known as Kurt JohnsonThis wonderful little book is part of Arcadia Publishingrsquo;s Postcard History series; and focuses on Grundy County; Illinois. It is chock full of black-and-white postcard shots from just about everywhere around the county ndash; from Morris to Coal City to Channahon and beyond. Each postcard has an interesting and highly informative caption. The postcards themselves are organized by type; which pretty much organizes them by era ndash; Early Private Mailing Cares (1880-1901); Undivided-Back Postcards (1901-1907); Divided-Back Postcards (1907-1914); White-Border and Divided-Back Postcards (1915-1930) and Linen and Photochrome Postcards (1993-2007).Overall; I found this to be a wonderful book; and like all of the books in this series; it is a great resource for any genealogist looking to capture information on the Grundy County of yesteryear. My one and only complaint against this wonderful book is that it would have been nice if the published has included an index of the postcards by town.But; that one small complaint aside; I do consider this to be a great book; one that is sure to interest anyone interested in Grundy County.
