For 176 years, the Democrat and Chronicle has been telling the story of Rochester and its citizens, day in and day out.

Rochester Memories, Volume II is a pictorial retrospective with many images from the archives of the D&C. Yet, it is more than the newspaper’s first rough draft of history. This book is unique in that many of its photos have been contributed by Rochesterians who opened up albums (and shoeboxes) to share their precious memories and tell their stories.
