Publisher Description: From its birth to the present, Sacramento has consistently built and reshaped its appearance, ideals, and industry. Through changing fortunes, Sacramento has continued to grow and prosper by overcoming adversity and maintaining the strong, independent culture of its citizens. With a selection of fine historic images from their best-selling book Historic Photos of Sacramento, James Scott and Tom Tolley provide a valuable and revealing historical retrospective on the growth and development of Sacramento. Remembering Sacramento captures this journey through still photography selected from the finest archives. From the 1860s to the 1960s, Remembering Sacramento follows life, government, education, and events throughout the city's history. This volume captures unique and rare scenes through the lens of more than a hundred historic photographs. Published in vivid black-and-white, these images communicate historic events and everyday life of two centuries of people building a unique and prosperous city. |
