One city, 712 sets of steps, 44,645 treads, 24,108 vertical feet. Sort of like climbing Mt. Everest.

Author Bob Regan and photographer Tim Fabian have captured their history, use, charm and care in this well documented and wonderfully photographed book sure to enchant locals and visitors alike.

Bob Regan once again mines the rich vein of Pittsburgh's history by continually finding new lenses through which to view the past. His previous two books-"The Steps of Pittsburgh" and "The Bridges of Pittsburgh"-were received with acclaim, drawing fans from the Pittsburgh diaspora around the world. Undoubtedly, "The Names of Pittsburgh" will do the same as Regan explores the names of the men and women-not to mention scientific paraphernalia, patents, astronomical terms, grape varietals, et al.-from the region's history which dot the landscape. Each provides a segue into a broader discussion of some aspect of Pittsburgh's past. The book is accompanied by 100 photos, maps, and illustrations, most of them historic. It also includes 10 maps suggesting areas for independent exploration of "The Names of Pittsburgh".
