Needs online participation
Images of America series by Arcadia Publishing will go down as one of the best large scale efforts to benefit local community and neighborhood history. The flaw is that they do not use these books as online organizing strategy to develop 2nd editions where others can help identify the people in the pictures and to uncover new pictures worthy to be published.Arcadia Publishing leaves a lot of money the table by not inviting an ongoing engagement with people who love the Images of America books.

Local history in small doses
One of a series of paperback books about the towns in New Jersey (and maybe other states as well?). The books feature many old pictures of people and places, as well as descriptions of things that happened there in prior centuries. If you are interested in knowing the history of a town, turn to this book. If you know the town as it is today, these pictures and descriptions will help you imagine the town as it was 100 years ago and more.

Hometown History
I have reunited with some old school chums from our high school days. Lots of memories from the past. Someone suggested obtainig a copy of this book which I did. It arrived timely and this publisher has written history with pictures of many, many other towns around the country - worth a look.
