Imagine holding a group of postcards in your hand. Each--through an image and a personal note--captures a moment frozen in time. The first postcard is dated 1918. A soldier, just returned from the Great War, has visited the New York City Aquarium on the tip of Manhattan. He writes to tell his sweetheart about the excitement of the big city. On another card, an Iowa businessman tells his wife and children that he has never seen anything quite like the 1933 Chicago World’s Fair. On yet another is the thoughtful message of a grandmother informing her children that on October 14, 1949 at 5:35 PM, she arrived safely at her destination, the lovely Raleigh Hotel in Miami Beach.

Now imagine that you hold a book of beautiful postcards. All are from the same city, but they span a complete century. Now your hand holds more than a few moments in time. It holds a story told in words and images.

Postcards from ... is a unique series that tells the story of extraordinary places through postcards sent by real people. Throughout each book, fascinating text weaves the cards together and offers insights into another place, another time. Whether you are an avid postcard collector or you simply want a fresh perspective on a favorite haunt, you are sure to find Postcards from ... a true delight.
