Author Bo Grebitus recently released “Touching History: Rediscovering Tahoe City’s Hidden Waterfront,” featuring a collection of historic images of the town’s once thriving waterfront district including docks for steamships that traversed Lake Tahoe as the area’s only transportation and the railroad that once connected Truckee and Tahoe City.
What makes this book different and fascinating is how Grebitus uses historic images set next to contemporary images of the same Tahoe City locations to visually engage the readers in the area’s history. As well, his “history-meld” images where a historic image is transposed over a contemporary image of the same location. | arcadiapublishing.com
