About the Author:
Yorktown draws primarily from the collection of the Yorktown Museum, as well as two major collectors within the Taconic Postcard Club. Town supervisor Linda G. Cooper coauthored Yorktown in the Images of America series. For this volume, she partnered with Yorktown Museum assistant curator Adele Hobby, Yorktown director of planning John Tegeder, and Susan Hack-Lane, the president of both the Friends of the Yorktown Museum and the Taconic Postcard Club, to gather and write material for this book. It is their hope that this volume of postcard images will encourage an interest in Yorktown's heritage and place in history.
