Frank BeberdickHistoric Pullman Foundation archivist and author Frank Beberdick, a resident of the Pullman community since 1975, has worked with HPF staff and fellow members of the foundation to compile this fascinating photographic account of the community. Beginnng with the birth of George Pullman in 1831, this book chronicles the history of the community up to the present. Photographs gathered from the foundation's archives show the start of both residential and industrial construction. Most of the book consists of photographs, while the accompanying text provides historical explanations that make the book both entertaining and educational. The Historic Pullman Foundation was established in 1973 to carry on the work of preservation and to become an educational resource of the Pullman Historic District. Today, the Hotel Florence (pictured on cover), the Grand Old Lady of Pullman, continues to be a major attraction for visitors to the community. Read More Read Less
