Von der hinteren Coverseite

A teacher of English and English History at the Friends School in Baltimore, Letitia Stockett was inspired to write her whimsical history of the city when a friend told her that nothing much had been done in the way of a history of Baltimore. Rising to the challenge, she spent all of her spare time on the book, telling curious friends and family merely that she 'had work to do.' Baltimore: A Not Too Serious History was the result, a charming and anecdotal account of the city's history that is as fresh today as it was when first published in 1928.
