From eighteenth-century mansions to urban high-rise buildings, A Guide to Baltimore Architecture chronicles two hundred years of architectural history through an exploration of the city's most beautiful and significant structures. Grouped by neighborhood in fifteen walking and driving tours, more than two hundred notable Baltimore buildings are pictured and described with commentary on their history and style. Thoroughly rewritten, the guide incorporates new photographs, maps, and tours as well as updated biographies of Baltimore architects. This edition also features a fresh examination of twentieth-century design in Baltimore by architectural historian Phoebe B. Stanton.

A collection of Frank Reardon's most recent work that covers the transitions of the poet as he has traversed the country and developed his style into a diverse and heartfelt voice that creates hope inside the turmoil of modern living while painting vivid images for readers to walk into like a road worn pair of shoes gifted to a barefoot traveler in order to make it a little bit further down the road. "Read Frank Reardon at your own risk. He'll open your heart with a corkscrew and leave you wide-eyed and longing for more." -Dan Fante, author of Chump Change, Mooch,"86'd" and Spitting Off Tall Buildings
