Historic Places of Buffalo & WNY: Information about Historic Locations, Buildings, Homes and Places

Profiles of 250 places, buildings, homes and places in the Western New York area that have or should have historic markers. A full page is dedicated to each location, so each profile provides information about the place and the people that were associated with it. In addition to the three main authors, several other local historians and authors contributed profiles or material for the book. The book is structured by town. Each town section is preceded by an introduction about the history of the municipality. These town sections are written by town Historical Societies, Town Historians and other area authors. nThere is at least one photo of each historic place and additional photos in the introductions. The photos are a combination of historic and current photos, taken by various photographers in the WNY area. n nThis is the perfect book to keep with you when traveling throughout the WNY area. The book will provide information about places you are visiting and since it is compiled by municipality, you can find other historic places to visit based upon your location. n nIf you live in Buffalo or plan on visiting the WNY area, this book is the perfect traveling companion. Purchase a copy for yourself, friends or relatives that want to know about the historic places of WNY. n nIt is the first book written to provide detailed information about places with Historic Designation or places that should be recognized.
