Chester County, Pennsylvania, is arguably one of the more historic and naturally beautiful places in the United States. This photographic exploration of the region includes memorable images of scenes such as the Devon Horse Show, the Kennett Square Mushroom Festival, and the Quaker settlement of Nantmeal. While much has changed since colonial days, when its abundant natural resources helped support a nation-to-be, visible reminders of past activities remain intermingled with elements of 21st-century progress and growth. Some of the reminders are simply names, ghosts of times past when travel was slow, crossroads mattered, and distances between activities necessarily were shorter than today. Others, such as buildings, farms, and ruins, are more visible. The 135 color photographs form a curated journey through the countryside, artfully capturing bits and pieces of its history and giving glimpses of its present-day character.

Engaging color photographs show off the sights, history, and culture of Baltimore, Maryland. The spirit of Baltimore, a historic East Coast city and major port that was founded in the early 18th century on the Chesapeake Bay, is deeply entwined with the water. Much has changed since then, but remnants of the city’s history are mingled with new growth and offer the visitor a wealth of memorable sights and scenes by both day and night. From Fort McHenry to the National Aquarium, Fells Point to Little Italy, Johns Hopkins University to Rawlings Conservatory, these photos show off Baltimore's many gems. Perfect both for lifetime Baltimoreans as well as visitors looking to remember their trip.
