In this second volume of Hanover, the trials, tribulations, and celebrations of the area are presented through extremely rare postcards. Among the events covered is the greatest test of the fortitude of the small town's residents: the August 21, 1915, tornado that caused enormous devastation and debris. Without the benefit of modern mechanized equipment, the community set out to clean up with a conviction to continue on with plans to celebrate Hanover's centennial only weeks later. Another milestone event occurred on June 14, 1932, when Hanover's residents celebrated the 200th anniversary of the birth of George Washington. Hanover Milestones also features scenes of industrial fires, celebrations marking the end of World War I, and the Hanover Fair.
