Bloomington Past and Present

By (author) Scott Sanders, By (author) Jim Madison, By (author) Will Counts






| book description |

The works of photographer Will Counts, writer Scott Sanders, and historian Jim Madison comprise this 'Gift to the City,' a gift not only for today's residents, but for the legions of ex-residents worldwide who love this plot of ground. Bloomington is a relatively small city, albeit with an ambience of mythical proportion. Mention Bloomington around former residents and their eyes light up, they go into an almost trance-like state, and they nearly always say they'd like to move back. There are a phenomenal number of residents who came to Bloomington to attend college and just never left. Some have sacrificed lucrative career moves to stay, and some have been born, grown up, married, raised their children, and retired while living in the same house. Some things have stayed the same, although in the past few years urban sprawl has taken its toll. Looking at the city through the eye of a camera, long-time Bloomington resident, Pulitzer-Prize nominee, photojournalist, professor, and father, Will Counts has included photos of Bloomington that will bring you back.;In this volume, Scott Russell Sanders, takes the reader on an imaginary tour of the city and surrounding areas in his essay
