Lost Baltimore by Carleton Jones
When Erika Drake, of the Westmount Drakes, met and fell in love with Marc Reiser, a Jew from northern Ontario, their respective worlds were turned upside down. Set against the backdrop of the first three years of the Second World War, Earth and High Heaven captured the hearts and minds of its generation and helped to shape the more diverse and inclusive culture we have today.
"'Lost Baltimore' should be required reading for architects and city plannersMuch tragic destruction could be avoided by a careful study of its illustrations and text, and by noting that buildings are least appreciated when they are about seventy years old. For Baltimoreans in general, this work will not only increase the growing realization of the importance of architectural preservation but will at the same time provide reading matter of great interest and nostalgic charm."--'Maryland Historical Magazine'
Carleton Jones has written extensively for the 'Baltimore Sun' and has a special interest in Baltimore history. He is the author of 'Maryland: A Picture History', 'Baltimore: A Picture History', and 'Streetwise Baltimore'.
