Looking Back
0"The 19th and the early 20th centuries were a time of technological and social transformations unprecedented in human history. Trains thundered across continents. Ocean liners carried the equivalent of populations of villages and towns to the other side of the globe. In the midst of it all was the photographer. After the Civil War, the camera went from battlefront to factory to city street recording the passing of old ways and the rise of the new. This photographic history book offers a glimpse into that time as it existed in the Lehigh Valley and beyond. It shows the transformation from rural to urban. Small towns became cities; iron furnaces sprang from rural farm fields, and country roads gave way to railroads, electric street cars and the automobile. Behind it all were the people who hailed from around the globe. Some came to farm, others to work in factories or ply their trades. Each brought his or her own way of life and transformed society. This book is dedicated to those, who iin that tumultuous time, shaped the Lehigh Valley area." from cover.
