| Publisher Description: The late 19th and early 20th centuries saw a worldwide postcard craze. This new means of communication did not cost a lot and was accessible to everyone. Its only limitation was the availability of postcards that suited one's fancy enough to purchase and send off. The Twin Cities of Neenah and Menasha, Wisconsin, were not immune to its charms. Neenah and Menasha: Twin Cities of the Fox Valley captures this era, using 200 vintage postcards from the author's own collection. From the lush green spaces of Riverside and Smith Parks to their bustling downtowns, industrial mills, and factories, this book will present Twin City landmarks that have withstood the ravages of time, while honoring those that are gone forever. |
