Summary

At the head of the Wicomico River, among seemingly endless fields, is Salisbury, Maryland, the crossroads of Delmarva. Its teeming port, university and inventive residents have transformed this once rural town into the commercial and cultural hub of the region. With a fascinating collection of vintage images, Dr. Gianni DeVincenti Hayes and Andy Nunez create a nostalgic portrait of Salisbury while celebrating its evolution. From scenes of residents pulling together in fire and flood to images of the Chicken Festival and long-ago summer days spent on the baseball diamond, Salisbury, Maryland: Picturing the Crossroads of Delmarva visually chronicles the history of a city while honoring its distinctive spirit.
