Summary

Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, has a premier location on the mighty Cuyahoga River which gave the town its name, its livelihood, and its soul. Cuyahoga Falls became a center of industry and recreation throughout the state of Ohio. This book explores the town's founding in 1812, its growth into an industrial powerhouse, and its current focus on downtown urban renewal. Local economies flourished as paper, flour, wool, stone, and wood were milled using the immense force of the water as it tumbled over a series of falls. Local inhabitants and visitors alike were drawn to nearby Silver Lake to enjoy scenic steamboat cruises, fish, ride the roller coaster, and enjoy the graceful parks. More than 200 vintage images are enhanced by the authors insightful commentary.
