Historic Photos of Tucson
About this book
Tucson is an American city quintessentially founded upon change. From its birth to the present, Tucson has consistently built and reshaped its appearance, ideals, and industry. Through changing fortunes, Tucson has continued to grow and prosper by overcoming adversity and maintaining the strong, independent culture of its citizens. Historic Photos of Tucson captures this journey through still photography selected from the finest archives. From its annexation from Mexico as part of the Gadsden Purchase in 1854 to the twenty-six-hour fire of April 1970, Historic Photos of Tucson follows life, government, education, and events throughout the city's history. This volume captures unique and rare scenes through the lens of hundreds of historic photographs. Published in striking black and white, these images communicate historic events and everyday life of two centuries of people building a unique and prosperous city.
