Want to REALLY know Dallas?

visiting a local author about his newly published book of Dallas History

Recently, Senectus member/co-founder Blake Hollers interviewed a local Dallas author and friend, Harry Hall about his new book, This Used To Be Dallas.  If you think you know Dallas, think again!

Inside, pictures of local places take readers to a different time and tell lost stories of familiar places we already know.  this book helps us learn what used to be in the places we Dallas residents drive past every day.  In This Used to Be Dallas.

Blake had this to say: “This was so fun! We both enjoyed making this in-house video, a conversation with a friend to help get word out about his new book about Dallas, which I thoroughly enjoy and we like to give as a gift.  And, because older adults particularly appreciate local history, I decided to share it with Senectus, our local group of Dallas service professionals helping seniors.”

So, it’s of local interest, if a bit off-topic…   If you happen to be interested Dallas history like we are, and think you know the big ‘D’, take a look.  It’s a fascinating story book, which will deepen your knowledge of our metroplex.

Here’s Part I of Blake’s interview with author Harry Hall, watch here:

Learning about the town I live in extends my concept of home. Everything we see within our city has a story behind what it is, who it serves and why it is there.  Naturally, when we know a little more about our surroundings, we make the place more our own.  With our ability to travel and adventure abroad more limited now, discovering new and fun ways to explore our local scenery expands our world.

To get a copy, go to [This Used To Be Dallas on Amazon], or let me know and I will see about scoring you a signed copy.  Maybe, when Senectus can do live education events again at communities and senior centers, we’ll give it as a drawing door prize. Ideas?
