The Bronx Lost, Found, and Remembered, 1935-1975
Source: Amazon
Author: Stephen M. Samtur and Martin A. Jackson
City: New York, State: NY
- From Martin Jackson: "Writing the book was a pleasure in many ways. It gave me the chance to look at lots of Bronx pictures, and thereby travel back in time to a different, and usually better, time. Nobody who lived, worked or had relatives in the Bronx is immune to the lure of nostalgia for those kinder days." (1999)
