Rochester has long been known for its leadership in optics, copying and photography. However, there were also more than 20 shoe manufacturers at one time; plus, the city was a major men’s clothing center and the country’s leading manufacturer of buttons. Many other national and international products also got their start in Rochester. Over the decades, author and historian Donovan Shilling has amassed a vast collection of these products, company photos and advertising material. He selected more than 165 Rochester born companies to feature in this “scrapbook.” You may remember some and you may have just heard of others. One thing’s for sure, though, you won’t want to lay this book down until you read all the way from A. H. Shipman (machinery) to Zweigles (sausage products).

The author of Lost Rochester explores more Med City history beyond the medicine. Stories surrounding the establishment of Rochester as a medical mecca are well documented and often showcased, but countless other tales haven't received as much attention. William Costley, son of the first slave freed by Abraham Lincoln, lived his last few months at Rochester State Hospital. Beloved citizen Reinhold Bach sailed aboard the doomed ocean liner the Empress of Ireland. The life of Minnie Bowron, hired as the city's first policewoman in 1917, offers an intriguing story, and teenager Lottie Schermerhorn awed crowds during the Roaring Twenties with daredevil aerial stunts. Join historian Amy Jo Hahn on an engaging narrative journey, a revelation of fascinating characters who made their mark on Rochester.
