For 33 years, William Magnan walked the streets of St. Louis as a postal carrier. His natural curiosity about the names of streets and history of the city led him and his wife Marcella to write The Streets of St. Louis.
With a historical narrative and comprehensive index of street names as well as a thorough appendix of state governors, city mayors and city schools, the Magnans show how the famous, infamous and unknown have left their marks on the city with a street sign.
