The ever-changing face of Watertown is captured in
this fascinating collection of postcard images dating from the early 1900s to
the present. The postcards in this book come primarily from the extensive
collection of W. F. Jannke III. He has presented an entertaining history of the
city, from the changing face of its business district to the different forms of
recreation once enjoyed by its inhabitants. Other images highlight scenes of
calamitous events, most notably the 1914 cyclone. All will find this work to be
a most engaging guide to the way life was lived in Watertown in “the good old
days.”
