True Historical Photographs

"Agnes Remembered" is a very interesting photo album to view if you ever lived through or lost your home during the time Agnes's ravishing flood waters caused immeasurable damage to the Wyoming Valley. I bought it because I can remember Hurricane Agnes came through three weeks after my high school graduation and more importantly, my husband was a member of a local volunteer fire company that assisted in the cleanup of the aftermath. He and his crewmembers were photographed by a San Francisco newspaper. I was hoping to see his photo in the book but there was no photo of him or his fellow volunteer firemen. All in all, "Agnes Remembered" is an impressive photographic journal of Hurricane Agnes from 1972.
