Wonderful tribute to Baltimore.

While Baltimore Sun's columnist Michael Olesker (a native) is too liberal for my sensibilities, his "Baltimore, "If You Live Here, You're Home" is a wonder read.A collection of his columns between 1979 and 1995; it's a respectful and loving paean to the city of Baltimore.The heroes, characters, politicos, sports figures, neighborhoods, crime and missing friends are featured subjects.It resonates for all who enjoy, love, live or work in Baltimore.Well done.
