The Pictorial history of Fort Wayne, Indiana

These volumes are illustrated “with halftone engravings and three hundred pen drawings and maps by the author”. Volume 1 contains the history and Volume 2 is devoted to biographical sketches. The illustrations are of some interest, as they include a wide variety of buildings, objects and maps, in addition to the usual collection of portraits. There is also a “Story of the Townships of Allen County” by Mrs. Samuel R. Taylor.
