History told so that you feel like you were there

This is another addition to this series outlining the history of the Chesapeake area.The author , who is also an editor of a newspaper in the Chesapeake area, has well researched the history of this area. This book continues by telling the happenings around 1910. It makes you feel as if you were right there, getting your local newspaper and finding out what had happened in the neighbourhood and all around the world. I found it to be a wealth of information and very enjoyable to read..
