In the summer of 2009, Stephanie Rich re-traced a European trip that her grandfather, Leo H. Rich (a New York native) took back in 1931. She traveled to the same cities that he did and re-created over one hundred and fifty photos that Leo took on his original trip. A Followed Path showcases the original and retake photos side by side. It focuses on their photography, but also details what it was like for a young woman to travel through the eyes of a grandfather she had never met. Leo's world came alive to his granddaughter during her trip. Through Leo's letters and photographs, and Stephanie's own historical research, she describes what the Europe he saw was like and how it had changed in the past 78 years. Also included are stories of the challenges, people and adventures Stephanie encountered while trying to find these often unlabeled, locations and angles.

Yes, it is interesting to see Europe then and now, but the writer's act of following her grandfather's path is the stirring motivation in this book. Rich shows great respect and love for this family elder whom she did not know. The book shows how trust and love for family stories can become a grounding experience in a young person's life. This book could appeal to teenagers with grandparents and to grandparents with stories to tell their grandchildren.Product details
