Author

In Around Little Rock: A Postcard History, brothers Steven and Ray Hanley, Arkansas natives and postcard collectors since childhood, bring to life the history of the state's capital with over 200 carefully selected images of "Greater Little Rock" and Pulaski County. Their extensive postcard collection covers the period from 1900 to 1960, documenting the area's evolution from a small town before the first automobile rolled down its quiet roads to a major metropolitan city. Combined with a wealth of well-researched information, these rare images provide both an educational and entertaining history experience that will be treasured by young and old, resident and visitor alike, for
years to come.
