Images of America: Piqua not only examines the town's history through images, it explores the ways in which the community has commemorated and celebrated its dynamic history. From its roots in Shawnee, Delaware, and other Native American cultures to its role as an important post on the Miami-Erie Canal, as well as its continued growth and development in the 20th century, the story of Piqua's rich history is told through its community organizations, parades, festivals, and most of all its citizens. This book provides a glimpse into the vast and multifaceted community that is Piqua.

Heidi L. Nees holds a PhD in theater from Bowling Green State University. Much of her research focuses on performances of history, but what drew her to this project was her own upbringing in the Piqua community. Michael M. Carver earned his PhD in history from Bowling Green State University. He has taught numerous courses in American history and is especially interested in local historical studies. The images in this book were collected from numerous sources and archives, including the Miami County YMCA, Westminster Presbyterian Church, the Johnston Farm and Indian Agency Historic Site, and especially the Piqua Public Library.
