Author, photographer and Highland Park resident Laurent Pernot talks about the charming and historic Illinois towns he documents in "There and Here: Small Illinois Towns With Big Names." (On Zoom.)
For a decade, Laurent Pernot traveled to small towns across Illinois photographing and researching their history. The result is his new book, There and Here: Small Illinois Towns With Big Names. The book documents places that are part of the state's and country's heritage - Native American lands, Underground Railroad sites, towns that reflected the dreams and aspirations of immigrants far from their homes, and more. Join us on Zoom to learn more about our state.
Laurent Pernot is also the author of Before the Ivy: the Cubs' Golden Age in Pre-Wrigley Chicago. See his website here: https://www.laurentpernotbooks.com/
