About This Book
"In Journeys to the Heart of Baltimore, veteran journalist Michael Olesker writes of the American melting pot - particularly Baltimore's - in all its rollicking, sentimental, good-natured, and chaotic features. The stories come from neighborhood street corners and front stoops, playgrounds and school rooms, churches and synagogues, and families gathered around late-night kitchen tables.".
""Think of this as a love letter across the generations," Olesker writes. The D'Alesandro political dynasty comes to life here, as do the legendary Baltimore Colts Lenny Moore and Artie Donovan. The old East Baltimore ethnic enclaves nurture youngsters named Barbara Mikulski and Ted Venetoulis, and out of West Baltimore comes the future Afro-American newspaper publisher Jake Oliver."--BOOK JACKET.
