Fall in Love with Baltimore, Dec 5 2000

This review is from: Hometown Boy: The Hoodle Patrol and Other Curiosities of Baltimore (Paperback)
Rafael Alvarez is a writer for the Baltimore Sun and this book is a collection of essays about the quirks of Baltimore. Broken down into sections including People, Landmarks, Business, etc., I found this book fascinating. It is the perfect gift for anyone who lives in Baltimore, is traveling to the city or has a special affinity for Charm City. The essays are long enough to give lots of detail about the subject but short enough so that the reader does not get bored. Even if you have spent your whole life in Baltimore you will learn something new in this book. My only complaint is that there is no index. The amount of fact contained in this book really demands it.
