From the days predating the American Revolution, Downingtown has played a vital part in the development of not only Chester County but also the commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the United States of America. It was an important stop for farmers and tradesmen transporting goods between Lancaster and Philadelphia. During the Philadelphia campaign of the Revolution in 1777, the Continental Congress approved the storage of material for George Washington's army in Downingtown. Situated in the heart of one of William Penn's three original counties of Pennsylvania, the area grew into an important manufacturing community, known for its paper mills fueled by the east branch of the Brandywine River, which flows through the middle of the town.

Coatesville has always been a city of visionaries, from its namesake, Moses Coates, a prosperous farmer and the area's first postmaster, to Rebecca Lukens, the "Woman of Steel" and one of the first female business executives in the United States. As the Lukens Steel Company prospered along the banks of the scenic Brandywine River, so did Coatesville, Chester County's only city. Their rich history is told here through nearly two hundred historic photographs.

This fascinating new history of the historical river that winds through Chester County, Pennsylvania, and the upper regions of Delaware and emptying into the Christina River in Wilmington, Delaware, showcases more than two hundred of the best vintage postcards available. The collected postcards show the countryside as it appeared during the Revolutionary War Battle at Brandywine through the time of nineteenth-century settlements in the region and into the twentieth century.

"Models of Cooperation in U.S., Latin American and Caribbean Libraries" considers library cooperation in the context of "The Americas," a name given to the geographic, political and cultural entities which constitute the American continents. One of the main characteristics that identifies this region is the dichotomy between the developed, mainly Anglophone North and the countries located south of the US-Mexican border, known collectively as Latin America. The Caribbean region, although it maintains its own identity, is very often lumped into the Latin American context.

The collection of papers presented in this volume does not try to discuss each and every one of the existing cooperative projects in the American region. Many of the papers describe cooperative experiences and projects in the Caribbean region, while others are more theoretical in content and broader in geographic coverage. It has been the intention of authors and editor alike, to compile a practical document that can be used for information as well as for discussion.
