This Slide Prersentation will take place at the Algonquin Area Public Library. It will include an audience at the library as well as through Skype.

Galena, Illinois is unique in so many ways. It is as if you step back in time when you approach this town, hidden away on Route 20 in Northern Illinois by the Mississippi. The buildings, the geography, and even the people are so inviting.

Based upon Phil Aleo’s popular book, Galena, Illinois, A Timeless Treasure, this presentation will detail the history of Galena from its earliest beginnings. With the aid of numerous archive newspaper articles as well as pristine vintage photographs, this presentation is a must see for all Galena enthusiasts.
