Description
Harrisburg lies on a broad swath of the great Susquehanna River, punctuated with its distinctive bridges.
Founder John Harris ventured beyond the frontier and established a ferry in 1733 that ushered the pioneer migrants as they trickled west.
Many stayed on to establish a city that became the legislative seat of America,s most industrious state.
The unusual vintage postcards in Harrisburg illustrate the history of a city that played an important role in the Civil War and politics of a growing nation.
From canals to superhighways, Harrisburg was always one step ahead of others.
Birthplace of the steel mill and transportation giant of the North, this city is a story of triumph, tragedy, and rebirth.
