See Pittsburgh as strangers and citizens saw it a century ago: smoky, busy, on the rise. Step back into old Pittsburgh. George T. Fleming's "Pittsburgh, How To See It" is a historic travel guidebook and illustrated city guide that escorts you through early 20th century Pittsburgh, from downtown Pittsburgh Pennsylvania to its rivers and hilltop vistas. With the brisk, factual voice of a classic American guidebook, it captures Pittsburgh sightseeing highlights in an era of steel, streetcars and surging ambition. Fleming, a keen observer of Pittsburgh architecture and history, leads you through the city, pointing out the notable Pittsburgh points of interest that defined its skyline and everyday life. Contemporary readers and Pittsburgh tourists and visitors can follow his descriptions in the imagination or on foot, tracing long-vanished vistas and surprising survivals. As a historic Pittsburgh travel book, it reveals how industry, commerce and culture clustered along streets, riverbanks and neighbourhoods that still shape the city today. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. A standout among vintage american city guides, this volume offers an evocative companion for armchair travellers and a valuable reference for local historians, students of change and anyone fascinated by early 20th century Pittsburgh. For casual readers and serious collectors alike, "Pittsburgh, How To See It" stands as an indispensable historic travel guidebook to one of America's great industrial cities.
