Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Underneath the brick and gravel of Second Street and beneath the soil of the surrounding farmland lies over a century and a half of Chillicothe, Hallock, and Medina township history. Although the founding families have passed on, their names and accomplishments still remain. These historic years

and the story of Chillicothe, Hallock, and Medina's

development are documented through over 200 vintage photographs in this new book in the Images of America series. The story of these three townships is not just a tale of one community, but is rather a chapter in the larger chronicle of 19th-century Midwestern settlement. This microcosm of heartland America documents the process by which frontier lands were settled, townships established, communities organized, and families raised.

Biografía del autor:

Who better to write the tale of Chillicothe than the Chillicothe Historical Society. By providing the images and voice for this book, the Chillicothe Historical Society has unearthed the roots of these townships and planted them in these 128 pages. It is a magnificent tale for all to enjoy, as we remember the America underneath its skyscrapers and marvel at her foundations.
