This beautiful 9" by 12" hard cover coffee table book includes over 200 pages and 700 images. "It is a valentine to this jewel in our city," states author Rob W. Goodling, a long-time Corn Hill resident and past president of the Corn Hill Neighbors Association.



Corn Hill and its Arts Festival, The First Forty Years is a showcase of Rochester history including seldom seen color photographs of the neighborhood and its arts festival as well as fascinating facts and anecdotes gleaned from four years of personal interviews.



In addition to great images, it's a good read as a narrative on the genesis and growth of this nationally acclaimed arts festival and the renaming and restoration of Rochester's oldest residential neighborhood.
