Publisher Description: "In 1881, Thomas J. Scharf published his History of Baltimore City and County. This single volume was a monumental effort to chronicle the development of the region; its political and economic structure; social life; institutions; and the individuals behind them. The work became the prototype for other mass produced local histories throughout the United States." -Thomas L. Hollowak In 1971, Scharf's History of Baltimore City and County was reprinted in two volumes consisting of a new Introduction, and a "rearranged" index. This volume, The Index, was compiled by Bill and Martha Reamy; it includes full-names (complete with maiden names), subjects and locations. |
