<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"The Cincinnati Anthology brings together some of Cincinnati's most notable residents, native sons and daughters, creatives and contemplators to tell the stories of a city's triumphs and tribulations. The pieces included in The Cincinnati Anthology--essays, art, and photography alike--are all about the city of Cincinnati, its present and its past, its transition and its legacy. They are about what currently defines this city and distinguishes it from other cities, what makes us love it and what makes some eventually leave it. It is an anthology of pieces on genealogy and geology, race and progress, and experiences from the suburbs to Over-the-Rhine. The Cincinnati Anthology includes written contributions from David Bottoms, Garrett Cummins, David Falk, Rebecca Morgan Frank, Jack Heffron, Polk Laffoon IV, Katie Laur, Sam LeCure, Tifanei Ressl-Moyer, Over The Rhine, Alex Schutte, Curtis Sittenfeld, Brian Trapp, Jenny Ustick, Sarah Wesseler, and Kate Westrich. Art and photography in The Cincinnati Anthology is contributed by Cedric Michael Cox, John Curley, Aaron Delamatre, Scott Devendorf, Nick Dewald, Maya Drozdz, Chris Glass, Russell Ihrig, Zan McQuade, and Michael Wilson."--Publisher's description.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>A part of Belt's City Anthology Series, "A deft, well-considered collection of essays, illustrations and photographs that represents...'the visions of those who have fallen madly in love with the city of Cincinnati, either for the first time or all over again.'"--<i>Cincinnati CityBeat</i></b></p><p><i>The Cincinnati Anthology</i> brings together some of the Queen City's most notable residents, native sons and daughters, and creatives to tell tales of a city's triumphs and tribulations. </p><p>Edited by Zan McQuade, this collection reflects Cincinnati's true complexity: its present and its past, its transitions and its legacies; what defines it and distinguishes it; what makes us love it and what makes some eventually leave it.

'the visions of those who have fallen madly in love with the city of Cincinnati, either for the first time or all over again.'" --<i>Cincinnati CityBeat</i><br><br>"A pretty incredible 200 pages of the city, what brings it together, what pulls it apart, and how convenient it is that the red and white of Cincinnati jerseys match the red and white of a stitched baseball. The Anthology is very cool, very mixed-media, and very much something you should buy for only $20." --<i>Red Reporter</i><br><br>"The twenty-three disparate pieces in the book reflect many faces of the city, some famous and some rarely glimpsed, much less exposed. Of course there are the hillsides and bridges and big brand corporations, the disgraced baseball legend and elegant arts czar. But there's also an alienated poet and a dissatisfied transplant and a stunning set of photo portraits that illuminate relationships in the neighborhood of Price Hill by cutting through stereotypes, one frame at a time." --<i>Middle West Review</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Zan McQuade</b> is an editor, writer, photographer, translator, and baseball enthusiast. She lives in Cincinnati, Ohio.
