Product Description In North Carolina Then & Now, distinguished North Carolina outdoor photographer Kevin Adams takes us on a visual journey through the history and evolution of a changing North Carolina landscape. After looking at some 50,000 photographs of 19th and 20th century North Carolina, Adams set out to retrace the historic photographer's footsteps and document the changing land.
The resulting compilation of 115 pairs of then and now photographs is both a moving eulogy to the past and a thought-provoking forecast for the future. Adams' captions serve as helpful guides through this accessible history lesson, and deepen our perspective into the costs of "progress" and the challenges of historic preservation.

I love this book. I know how hard and time consuming it must have been to put the book together. I live in North Carolina and it was great to see pictures of what it looked like years ago next to pictures of what it looks like now.
