Summary: A Good Beginner's Guide
Comment: "Yesterday's Cincinnati" is a good beginner's guide into Cincinnati histories. The pictures are numerous and informative; the text is instructive, and sometimes witty. This pictorial history 's strongest point is also its weakest: it is brief. This is good, in that it sparks the reader's interest to delve deeper into Cincinnati's past: how sudden was the '37 flood; just who WAS Boss Cox; what ever became of the defunct subway system? But these things are not explained in this brief history, and leaves the reader wanting more, yet not pointing him or her in a direction in which more can be found.
As a beginner's guide in the histories of a city, I rate this book rather highly, because of its brevity. If you are interested in a glimpse under the crown of the Queen City from her beginnings to the mid-1900's, Luke Feck provides a wonderful starting step for you!
