Philadelphia Perspectives

Philadelphia Perspectives

From the â€œmost historic square mileâ€ in the country to one of the largest urban parks in the world and then to the realms of sports and cheesesteaks, 120 images take the viewer on a journey through the rich history, sights, and pop culture of Philadelphia. Included are oft-visited iconic spots, such as Independence Hall, where the countryâ€™s founding fathers committed to rebellion, hammered out the Constitution, and governed the nation, and the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, immortalized in the movie â€œRocky.â€ Interwoven are many historic and contemporary scenes that are associated with what is locally and loosely known as â€œcenter city.â€ The book is a brief travelogue through the time and space of this old and venerable but very much alive place.
