 Big Apple Almanac Volume Two by Patrick M. Reynolds Here is another beautiful full-color book which begins with the Battle of Kip's Bay where General Washington totally lost his cool, and almost the war; followed by the inside story of his first inauguration. Find out how Tiffany got into the gem business, how Currier and Ives made great pictures...and speaking of pictures, see how Thomas Edison invented motion pictures and started the movie business, and how vaseline originated at an oil derrick, why they drop the ball on New Year's, and Milton Hershey's disastrous start in the candy biz. Here are stories behind some obscure, but important firsts: gynecologist, woman doctor, phone company, taxi cabs, skywriter, fire engine, and the first and only woman Medal of Honor recipient. There are special sections on the great blizzard of 1888, and the Parade of the Pooper-Scoopers.
11¾" x 7" 109 pages, index, fully illustrated, paperbound ISBN 0-932514-24-3
