St. Louis Brews, Second Edition: The History of Brewing in the Gateway City features hundreds of historical images, a full chronology of the city's long brewing history, fascinating profiles of more than 125 local breweries, and capsules on the craft, regional, and nineteenth-century breweries. Available again in its second edition, the book begins with St. Louis' earliest brewing history-starting in 1809, the date of the city's incorporation, when beer was sometimes cooled in dug-out canoes-and tells the story of how St. Louis came to be one of America's foremost beer towns. That includes detailed backgrounds on St. Louis' beer barons, including Adolphus Busch and Eberhard Anheuser, a look at the city's golden age of brewing during the Belle Epoque, the impacts of Prohibition, and the InBev takeover of Anheuser-Busch in 2009. Finally, it gives the reader an up-to-the-moment look at the city's astonishing craft brewing scene, which began to blossom in 2009 and is now attracting national attention. Everyone in St. Louis loves to drink beer; they may love to drink it all the more knowing the city's rich backstory in beer and brewing.

In Downtown St. Louis, author NiNi Harris follows the evolution of Downtown St. Louis from colonial days when French traders and craftsmen planted maize on the prairies that stretched from 4th Street west to Jefferson Avenue to millennials and empty nesters living in castle-like warehouses converted into 21st century lofts. Downtown St. Louis recalls when Native Americans arrived by canoe to attend a grand council and the sounds of Italian street vendors in the 1870s. It describes the street celebration that erupted at 8th and Olive Streets at the news the Japanese had surrendered ending World War II. All the while, generations of St. Louisans were building and rebuilding a spectacular Downtown - with ornate Victorian architecture reflected in the sheer glass walls of International style skyscrapers, with the nation's first skyscraper, with lavish Art Deco civic buildings, and with a train station modeled after a walled, medieval city. Downtown St. Louis recalls tells of the building of the Gateway Arch, the 630 foot shimmering sculpture that embodies the history of St. Louis while framing Downtown s skyline.
