520 |a "This richly illustrated new book celebrates Columbus, Ohio's, two-hundred-year history and supplies intriguing stories about the city's buildings and celebrated citizens, stopping at individual addresses, street corners, parks, and riverbanks where history was made. As Columbus celebrates its bicentennial in 2012, a guide to local history is very relevant. Like Columbus itself, the city's history is underrated. Some events are of national importance; no one would deny that Abraham Lincoln's funeral procession down High Street was a historical highlight. But the authors have also included a wealth of social and entertainment history from Columbus's colorful history as state capital and destination for musicians, artists, and sports teams. The book is divided into seventeen chapters, each representing a section of the city, including Statehouse Square, German Village, and Franklinton, the city's original settlement in 1797. Each chapter opens with an entertaining story that precedes the site listings. Sites are clearly numbered on maps in each section to make it easy for readers to visit the places that pique their interest. Many rare and historic photos are reproduced along with stunning contemporary images that offer insight into the ways Columbus has changed over the years"--  |c Provided by publisher.
