Book Overview

The informative book, Horses in Motion, (detailing Rochester, NY's carousel history) now has a sequel. More Horses in Motion goes into further detail on several of the carousels mentioned in the earlier book. Here, you'll find even more local carousels and some rarely seen photographs. You'll also find the interesting answers to many questions, including: What carousel burned down as as the result of a lightning strike in 1895? Why did city officials choose not to renew a license for a carousel in 1898? What was the reason behind a carousel operator applying for a pistol permit in 1905? Where was the short-lived Treasure Island? What about Boardwalk Park and Moose Park? What was so controversial about the Irondequoit Mall carousel in 1991? These questions and more are all answered in More Horses in Motion. This second book is packed with new information that will give carousel enthusiasts a deeper appreciation of the carousels that operated throughout Monroe County, New York. This description may be from another edition of this product.
