"Truly, we Wichitans have learned that if we continue to apply our abundant energies to giving, building, and celebrating, anything is possible. The lessons of the past few decades are simply this: If we are willing to experiment with new ideas and act on our own unique, bold vision, this city of the heartland will grow in new and dynamic ways yet to be imaged. Stay tuned for the next 125 years." Majestic rivers converging to form a beautiful backdrop beneath the rising skyline. Radiant sunsets that light up the open plains as if an artist had tossed a dozen hues of orange, red, yellow, pink, and purple onto a wide blue canvas. New storefronts opening up so fast that it seems just like a boomtown. People with a strong sense of tradition who are embracing the extraordinary future that lies ahead for Wichita, Kansas. Such are a few of the elements that make this a truly special place. With the aid of nearly 400 color images by the area's finest photographers, longtime Kansas Editor and journalist Howard Inglish leads an insightful tour of this thriving Midwestern city. Inglish traces Wichita's transformation from a rough and tumble cowtown on the untamed, Western frontier into a progressive cultural and manufacturing center, know around the globe as the "Aviation Capital of the World." A resident of the city for nearly 25 years, Inglish offers a revealing look at the way Wichita residents consistently come together as a community, whether to celebrate the annual Wichita River Festival or help a neighbor rebuild a barn blown down by a spring storm. Wichitans delight in hard work, wholesome play, and the traditional American values of family, faith, and country. Situated in the middle of America, Wichita is a great relocation point for businesses and individuals. Whether they come from the skilled labor pool or the wealth of job opportunities, they are delighted with the bonuses of beautiful scenery, friendly atmosphere, manageable size, cultural amenities, and terrific quality of life. Indeed, Wichita is understandably proud of its heritage as well as its progressive vision for the future. And it's a city that greets visitors and new residents alike with true Midwestern charm.
