The Story of Albany, The Book

The Times Union's collaborative community history, The Story of Albany, began life as a website hosted by Paul Grondahl.

It is now available in book form. You may purchase copies online, or as a download, or the old-fashioned way: the book will be on sale from noon to 2 p.m. Friday, Dec. 23, in the lobby of the Times Union, 645 Albany Shaker Road.

Times Union Senior Writer Paul Grondahl, who wrote parts of the book and helped lead the project, will be on hand to sign copies.

Among the book's highlights: an account of the filming of Ironweed.
