Historic Photos of St. Louis Book Signing

(Nashville, TN)
On Saturday June 14 from 1-3pm, Jean Gosebrink and Adele Heagney will be signing their newest release, Historic Photos of St. Louis. This event is free and will take place at the Barnes & Noble located at 8871 Ladre Rd, Ladue, MO 63124. For more information, call (314) 862-6280.

This gorgeous 10x10 gift book rediscovers the fascinating past of “St. Louie” through nearly 200 rare photographs culled from the Missouri State Archives, the National Archives and Records Administration, the Library of Congress, and the Special Collections of the St. Louis Public Library, showcased with exceptional clarity and beauty.

From riverboats to railroad companies, the St. Louis Cardinals to the Gateway Arch, and much more, St. Louis shines through the decades in glorious black-and-white photography, displayed in a large format. It’s a fantastic book for any travel, photography or history fan!

“St. Louisans are justly proud of their city, interested in its past and future,” says Gosebrink. “These historic photos inspire us to think about what the city and life were like here in the last century,” says Heagney. “They should also inspire us to look at the city and the things we’re used to seeing with a different perspective.”

Historic Photos of St. Louis is part of Turner Publishing’s Historic Photos series. These books, highlighting the history of the great cities, legendary figures, and pivotal events across America, have been acclaimed as a staple in the collection of anyone who loves history.
