(More customer reviews)This is an excellent book illuminating many beautiful sites, occasions and the 1913 flood very relevant to Dayton, Ohio history. I am so glad I was able to get a copy. It was well presented according to subject matter; the postcards pictured were of excellent quality. Thank you so much.

The rise and near destruction of Dayton in the early 20th century is chronicled in this visual postcard history. The postcards showcase some of the cityÂÂ's unique commercial buildings, hotels, churches, and residences, many now long gone due to urban renewal and highway construction in the 1960s and 1970s. Landmarks featured include the National SoldiersÂÂ' Home, built for veterans of the Civil War in 1868, and there is an entire chapter dedicated to the events of the 1913 flood that forever changed the face of the city. Over 200 postcard images were selected from the Dayton Metro Library and a number of privately held collections.
