Summary: Allen Meyers does it again
Review: I was fascinated with this book because I grew up not far from where this picture was taken (although many years later).

Allen touches upon history, both Jewish and non, and gathered many rare photographs for his series of books on the Jewish settlements in Philadelphia, PA. (In this book, I found a school picture of one of my great-aunts.) I found his history of the area to be on target (if a little fluffy at times) and, in all, enjoyed his accuracy.

Pretty good read.
