"[The] authors infuse the city and its history with life.... [Readers] will emerge with an uncommonly complete picture of the character of Baltimore and its people."
-Nancy Brennan, Executive Director, Baltimore City Life Museums
"The Baltimore Book tells the story of the real people of Baltimore-the true fabric of the city. These are the courageous individuals who fought for their right to work, and fought for their right to buy a home and live where they chose. Their goals and their struggle to achieve those goals is the real story of how a city grows."
-Barbara A. Mikulski, United States Senator from Maryland
"...'must' reading for anyone who wishes to develop a comprehensive view of the city's history in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries...."
-Robert J. Brugger, Editor, Maryland Historical Magazine
