Architectural historian Roger W. Moss and photographer Tom Crane set out to celebrate the surviving accessible historic architecture of Philadelphia, envisioning a series of books that would provide much more than the snapshots found in guidebooks. They began with Historic Houses of Philadelphia, bringing the region's most impressive museum homes to life. Historic Sacred Places of Philadelphia followed, an exclusive tour of fifty hallowed sites. In Historic Landmarks of Philadelphia, Moss and Crane feature prominent, memorable structures that reflect stages in Philadelphia's growth.

There are sixty-five National Historic Landmarks in Philadelphia, structures that have been identified as being "nationally significant" and having "meaning to all Americans." This newest addition to Moss and Crane's trilogy includes a wide array of historic sites, ranging from concert halls to prisons, train stations to museums, banks to libraries. The buildings are arranged chronologically rather than geographically, to emphasize Philadelphia's evolution from modest mercantile outpost of a colonial power, to capital of a proud new nation, to a robust world-renowned cosmopolitan city.

Historic Landmarks of Philadelphia presents such notable attractions as Fort Mifflin, Independence Hall, the Fairmount Water Works, the Athenaeum of Philadelphia, Boathouse Row, Laurel Hill Cemetery, Eastern State Penitentiary, the Academy of Music, the Union League of Philadelphia, Memorial Hall, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the Masonic Temple, and the sights that line the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, including the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Free Library of Philadelphia, and the Rodin Museum, in more than two hundred color illustrations. It celebrates master builders and their influence on the course of American architecture while identifying the distinctive qualities that embody Philadelphia's history and spirit.

Warm, comfortable, and great value for the price
Color: Ocean Blue, Style: Everyday 3 Season 50-80° F
I bought this sleeping bag for my son on a recent camping trip, and it performed surprisingly well. It warms up quickly once you’re inside, and the material feels soft and comfortable against the skin. The zipper runs smoothly and doesn’t get stuck easily, which is a big plus. It’s lightweight and packs down small, so it’s easy to carry and doesn’t take much space in his backpack. However, It’s not warm enough for very cold nights below the temperature rating, so if you’re camping in winter, you may need an extra blanket or liner. Overall, for the price, this sleeping bag is an excellent buy—comfortable, warm, and very practical. I would like to give five stars.

it’s great quality for the price, and I would definitely recommend it
Color: Blossom Pink, Style: Everyday 3 Season 50-80° F
I’m very impressed with this sleeping bag! It’s incredibly comfortable, warm, and lightweight, making it perfect for camping trips and sleepovers. The material feels soft on the inside but durable on the outside, and the zipper works smoothly without snagging. It kept me warm throughout the night without feeling too heavy, and it rolls up easily for storage and travel. Overall, it’s great quality for the price, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and cozy sleeping bag.

Perfect for Sleepovers
Color: Forest Green, Style: Everyday 3 Season 50-80° F
We purchased two of these for our grandkids (ages 6 and 8) to use while they visited for 3 days. It was “indoor camping” and they worked perfectly. Lightweight construction made them comfortable in 70+ degrees, and the way the manufacturer uses multiple pockets of insulation keeps it from bunching up, while remaining super soft and comfortable. Clean on a gentle cycle and they will last a long time… a great value for the price!

Good enough
Color: Ocean Blue, Style: Everyday 3 Season 50-80° F
Ordered 2 for a quick trip. They were warm enough for 45 degree nights. My complaint is how easily they tore.
