Down the Ocean
A thoroughly enjoyable book, especially for those familiar with Ocean City, MD and the Delaware beaches.Every summer these beaches swell to the sizes of large cities with visitors looking for sun and relaxation by theAtlantic. "Down the Ocean" takes you back, in picturepostcards, to a time when these beaches were just gaining their popularity. Early hotels are shown in their heyday. There are views of theBoardwalks and of people in the sun bathing outfits of the early 1900's.I had so much fun with this book I finished it in one sitting and wouldhighly recommend it to others! ...

Wish you were here......
I am a Tucson native and love the whole history of my hometown, and this small little postcard book just was a really neat little find.
UNIQUE BOOK FOR ANYONE THAT LOVES THE SOUTHWEST
As a long time resident of Tucson I'm so thrilled to find this unique history of Tucson book written in such an engaging manner.Such a great idea for a book, using old postcard images and putting together a history that really flows.My only question was why did it take so long for someone to come up with this great idea?All the images are in full glorious color which makes this a perfect browsing book for all my out-of-town friends and relatives.

This makes me want to go back to Tucson.
I had the good fortune to visit Tucson several years ago and really enjoyed myself tremedously. However after reading this book, I can see all of the sights that I missed.Each and every postcard tells a story.Seeing the background of a city from the perspective of postcards is a quite innovative way to portray its history. This book is an amazing collection of historical postcards that are displayed in a truly attractive manner.Anyone with an interest in the old southwest or history in general will truly enjoy this book. ...

All the Basics
You don't have to know a thing about building and Rick Peters will help you build your deck from scratch. Covers the basics
Good book if you are only interested in the very basics.If you want a deck with any style - look elsewhere.

Clear Instructions
Once you know what you want to build, Rick Peters gives you clear step-by-step instructions (with great illustrations) for constructing and then maintaining outdoor structures. I find this book very useful in my business of renovating and decorating porches, decks & gazebos. ... Read more

A trip back in time.
The contents of this book are fairly straight forward. On the right hand side of the page is illustrated 4 postcards (in both colour & B&W) and the left hand side is a biography of each of the people depicted, the date the card was published and where it was published.Read more

Rich, moving images of a unique people and culture
Compiled and presented by Donald D. Spencer, Seminole Indians In Old Picture Postcards a unique and thoroughly amazing showcase of both color and black-and-white illustrations, drawn from the author's valuable collection of picture postcards that feature the Native Americans of Florida's Seminole tribe. Each postcard reproduction comes with a brief caption describing its scene and its ramifications. A concise yet enlightening introduction by the author offers a simple capsulization of Seminole history in America, while the majority of the book is given over to the rich, moving images of a unique people and culture. Seminole Indians In Old Picture Postcards is a unique and enthusiastically recommended addition for Native American Studies reference collections. ... Read more
