Cool new book - Charlotte Then and Now
I just saw this on the Observer's site. Brandon Lunsford has a book showing how Charlotte has changed in the past 130 years. I love stuff like this! You can see some of the pictures here. To see the "Now" pics, scroll over word now.

Thanks for the heads up! I knew the book was already out, I'm sure most local book stores have it as well.

I was supposed to have won this book in a "Dirty Santa" office Christmas party this past year...but Noooooooo...someone just had to steal it from me. And that steal was the third one, which locked it in for good.
