In the spring of 1916, an unknown photographer captured the heart
of Prescott, Arizona. For decades the fruits of that labor, a
collection of glass plate negatives, lay largely forgotten in the
local opera house and theater. Now, an historic western town comes
to life as it once was, through images of the town's business
district as found on those photographic plates. Step into a soda
fountain, a pool hall, a mercantile, a haberdashery, a saddlery and
more, and experience life as it existed in the newly minted state
of Arizona in the early twentieth century. This photographic
history of Prescott, Arizona, is based upon more than 100 images
from the 1916 glass-plate negatives. Complementary images of
business advertisements, trade tokens, and streetscapes supplement
the main photographs. Richly detailed captions highlight many
aspects of the pictures, and the text further explores and
describes the town's historic downtown district, much of which
still exists. Maps, a bibliography and an index complete the work.
