Philadelphia & Its Countryside (Pennsylvania's Series) - Hardcover
This book's 180 color photos and fact-filled essays will take you on an appealing journey into Pennsylvania's City of Brotherly Love and its four surrounding counties: Bucks, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery. Outdoor sculpture, historic gardens, Independence sites, scenic views and city festivals offer you the flavor of an area significant since colonial days. Quotes by Pennsylvania's founder, William Penn, open each chapter.
Complete with a Foreword by James A. Michener, this book, claims The Philadelphia Inquirer, is "a guidebook for visitors and a historical and recreational refresher course for residents [of] one of the richest veins of history and culture in North America."

From School Library Journal:
YA?Lively essays and 150 artistic, well-chosen, full-color photographs introduce the area's political, religious, industrial, and cultural history, as well as its ethnic diversity, artistry, industrial and farming life, and diversions such as the Mummers' Parade and the Flower Show. For long-term enjoyment and reports on American history, the book has everything to appeal to YAs?except the cover, which features elementary-age students.
