Synopsis A Historical Guidebook to Old Columbus by : Bob Hunter
Ever look at a modern skyscraper or a vacant lot and wonder what was there before? Or maybe you have passed an old house and been curious about who lived there long ago. 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. A Historical Guidebook to Old Columbus invites Columbus’s families to rediscover their city with a treasure trove of stories from its past and suggests to visitors and new residents many interesting places that they might not otherwise find. This new book is certain to amuse and inform for years to come.

Synopsis Columbus Pizza: A Slice of History by : Jim Ellison
For nearly a century Columbus, Ohio pizza parlors have served up delicious meals by the tray and by the slice. This history goes back to the 1930s, when TAT Ristorante began serving pizza. Today, it is the oldest family-owned restaurant in the city. Over the years, a specific style evolved guided by the experiences and culinary interpretations of local pizza pioneers like Jimmy Massey, Romeo Sirij, Tommy Iacono, Joe Gatto, Cosmo Leonardo, Pat Orecchio, Reuben Cohen, Guido Casa and Richie DiPaolo. The years of experimentation and refinement culminated in Columbus being crowned the pizza capital of the USA in the 1990s. Author and founder of the city's first pizza tour Jim Ellison chronicles one of the city's favorite foods.

Synopsis A Concise History of Columbus, Ohio and Franklin County by : Chester C. Winter
This book is an essential but concise history of Columbus, the capital city of Ohio and Franklin County. Columbus was created out of wilderness that was occupied by Native Americans. By acts of Congress in 1785 and 1787, it became part of the Northwest Territory. After Ohio became a state in 1803, the city was plotted in 1812 to become the capital of Ohio in 1816. The exciting development of the city and county, biographies of many of its prominent citizens, and pictures of downtown buildings and historic homes are presented. Also submitted in a succinct fashion, are statistical details of many aspects of its steady growth, industry, ethnicity, politics, education, religions, culture, arts, sciences, sports and other entertainment. Two hundred and fourteen images of buildings, maps, and tables are included. The author taught American and Ohio history for twelve years and has written four other books about Ohio that are listed on the inside of the back cover.
