Summary

"Originally part of Pennsylvania and called "the three lower counties on the Delaware," the First State's present has been shaped by both colonial culture and modern industry. Many landmarks of its past--including the Greenabaum Cannery, the Rosedale Beach Hotel, the Nanticoke Queen restaurant, the Ross Point School and the Kahunaville nightclub--now live solely in memory. The tales of airplanes and auto plants, breweries and bridges, cows and churches, provide insight into the state's many communities, including its Black heritage. Read about fallen hospitals, long-ago lighthouses, crumbling mansions, demolished prisons and defunct theaters. Former Delaware journalists Rachel Kipp and Dan Shortridge document the past, present and sometimes the future of Delaware's landmarks and legends."-- back cover.
