Sergio's Odyssey
Sergio's Odyssy is a satirical romp loaded with lively laughs, touching moments, perceptive observations and surprising twists. Sergio, an innocent seventeen year old mountain boy, takes the daring step of traveling alone to Philadelphia in the hope of realizing his implausible but compelling obsession. When he arrives he encounters, among others, a traumatized relative, an arrogant cook, an opportunistic policeman, a callous hotel clerk, a prostitute and her pimp, a moneylender, a fortune-teller, protest marchers and two desperate gunmen. Then the excitement really begins. It is when Sergio meets slick Julian and luscious Heidi that his life changes drastically. What follows is another series of hilarious and improbable adventures where he comes across more offbeat characters who further complicate his life. Enjoy the odyssey!
Philadelphia Architecture
Philadelphia is a city of Colonial and ghostly architecture with narrow historic streets that open up onto vistas of bold, towering skyscrapers. It is a city of Greek Revival banks, Italian Renaissance, and Second Empire buildings, a city of Beaux-Arts hotels, Byzantine and Gothic churches, and International-style high-rises. A hybrid of gritty Chicago and pristine Boston, Philadelphia stands alone, an aristocrat in bib overalls, as a livable, intimate city of neighborhoods and luxurious townhouses, of hidden treasures and spectacular surprises. Philadelphia Architecture, a walk through Philadelphia streets past and present, highlights the richness and diversity of the city's architectural history.

The Perennial Philadelphians
The Perennial Philadelphians tells the story of the city's inherited aristocracy—of Wanamakers and Drexels, of Biddles and Cadwaladers. Drawing on history, genealogy, politics, economics, the fine arts, private diaries, and the impressions and anecdotes of myriad living witnesses, Nathaniel Burt paints a fascinating portrait of Old Philadelphians. He traces the succession of a dynasty of doctors or lawyers, explores the country club scene, and takes us to regattas on the Schuylkill, fox hunts in Radnor, and horse shows in Devon. First published in 1963, this classic text has lost none of its timeliness. An adept social commentator, Burt cuts aside the centuries-old protective coloration in which Old Philadelphians have wrapped themselves, and reveals who these people are and how they manage to perpetuate themselves from generation to generation.
