Step back into Cleveland on the brink of the Civil War and walk its streets name by name, trade by trade. Every name carries a story. J. H. Williston & Co.'s Directory of the City of Cleveland, with its added business directory for 1859-60, stands as a meticulous historical city directory capturing Cleveland, Ohio 1859 1860 at a moment of rapid growth and change. As a nineteenth century Cleveland directory, it functions both as a Cleveland residents directory and a Cleveland business directory, recording names, addresses and occupations with remarkable precision. Indispensable as a genealogy reference book and a trusted resource for genealogists and researchers of Cleveland history, this Cleveland city directory 1859 volume opens an intimate window onto pre Civil War Cleveland and the wider landscape of Ohio local history. It belongs at the heart of any serious Ohio city directories collection, yet it also rewards the casual browser: local enthusiasts, family historians, students of commerce and urban life will all find rich detail in its pages. Equally suited to curious readers and to classic-literature collectors who prize authentic nineteenth-century print culture, it is ideal for home libraries and institutional collections alike. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, this carefully prepared edition serves readers, libraries and collectors who wish to preserve and explore Cleveland's documentary past.
