a photographic history of Portland, Maine

"Providing a unique look at the way Portland has preserved its built environment while adapting to a new century, this book features many of the city's greatest works of architecture and some of its most enchanting places. These range from lost treasures such as Union Station, the Falmouth Hotel, the granite Post Office, and Grand Trunk Terminal to unexpected delights still to be found in the city's Old Port area, on Munjoy Hill, along the Eastern and Western Promenades, in Bayside and Deering, and throughout much of Downtown. As with the original City by the Sea, this volume showcases a rich diversity of architectural styles which make Portland the pleasant place it is, a place that is consistently ranked as one of the best small cities in America in which to live"--Jacket
