1: thoughtful & interesting
Makes a person think about education, urban planning and the cost of suberbia.
|
2: A Tale Well Told
Michael Downs has done a wonderful job of weaving in his personal life with a story of hopes and dreams--some realized and some not. At times, his prose is poetic. The story of the virtual collapse of huge chunks of Hartford is a story that has played out in major cities across America. This story, extremely well-documented and reported, is uniquely and poignantly told.
