Albany Scrapbook vol 1: A Montage of Life and Lore in Albany, New York, Through the Centuries Paperback – December 2, 2006

What more is there to say? I enjoyed the read. It was broken into sections that were long enough to be interesting, but short enough that you could read one or two, put it down. Then pick it up again and carry on.

The book was great it told the story of Albany, New York the Capital city of NEW YORK STATE. Very well done and I loved the book!!

With Albany Scrapbook Volume 1, writer Salzmann and editor Gelles-Cole have shown just how entertaining regional history can be - when it's told via snapshots of colorful characters. Urban legends exposed, truth that's indeed stranger than fiction (John Wilkes Booth - stabbed in Albany?) A treasure trove of well-researched factual nuggets covering 400 years, Scrapbook will entertain and enlighten any fan of "Smallbany" All that's missing - is Volume 2.
