Clean text. Price clipped. Protected by Brodart dust jacket cover.
Book in very good plus condition. Dust jacket in good condition with significant fading along spine.
Blake McKelvey, for many years City Historian of Rochester is a pioneer in the field of urban history.
"This is a narrative biography of the ten generations who inhabited and built what its now the third most populous city in New York State. It describes: 'how the pioneers finally settled on the Genesee falls as the proper site for a mill town; how the villagers there readjusted to the fact that it was becoming a city; how the Flour City gave way to the Flower City, and that, in turn, to a cosmopolitan city; how the emphasis on good government evolved; how George Eastman's interests and leardership developed; how Rochesterians responded to two world wars and the Great Depression, as well as new metropolitan problems; and finally, what the present generation gap discloses concerning the city's recent past and possible future."
