With more than 140 photos, many of them seen here for the first time, Queens County: A History in Pictures offers the definitive look at the county and its people. Since 1929, the Queens County Museum has been collecting photographs of the people, industry, landscapes and events of Queens County. To date, the collection contains more than 10, 000 photographs, many of which are on display at the museum. Over the years, many historical figures, including baseball legend Babe Ruth, renowned author Zane Grey, and famed Chicago financier Thomas Howell have come to fish, hunt and discover the riches of the area's land and sea. This collection captures that history this like before. You can almost hear the call of the wild and the roar of the ocean. | Queens County by Kathleen Stitt, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
