Great stuff
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Catonsville chronicles through photographs the story of a great American suburb. Residents of the town will certainly enjoy it, but more broadly anyone interested in how a small town grows and transforms into a bustling suburb will find it fascinating. Well laid out and thorougly documented. Great stuff.
Great Compelation of Catonsville History
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This book is great for people who are looking to find out what old Catonsville looked like. I love all the pictures of the homes and families and the information it includes about the Catons. It has a lot of pictures that are included from the Catonsville Library's collection. It is well organized.
Images of America - Catonsville

This book complements another book, "Catonsville 1880 to 1940, from Village to Suburb", previously published in 1979 in conjunction with the Catonsville Historical Society. The author brings out of the files even more photographs of our past. It could almost be titled "Catonsville Lost". Not only does it makes us mourn the loss of such magnificent homes and the "village" atmosphere, but a certain lifestyle of the residents of the long-gone era. In doing her research the author revealed finding even more material for yet another book. I look forward to a continuation of this theme. Lucy W. McKean, President Catonsville Historical Society
Outstanding photos and information from Historic Catonsville
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I had the opportunity to purchase this book a few days ago, and I was unable to put it down until the end. It is packed full of photos and history, bringing back fond memories of my childhood, and creating some new thoughts for discovery. I thought I already knew so much, then I read the book and learned so much more. The author has done a wonderful job of gathering and creating an order of things. I'm overwhelmed at the photos she has accumulated. I hope to read more from this author. Her style is enjoyable, and very easy to follow. Thank you.
