This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the past of Knoxville, Tennessee, as it was pictured on postcards between 1900 and 1930. These postcards depict buildings, city streets, and landscapes, serving as richly evocative reminders of days long since gone. Most of the nearly two hundred postcards are reproduced in color, and each one is accompanied by a detailed caption describing its subject and the history behind it. They were chosen from the author’s collection of more than 1,000 vintage cards.
