Fading Ads of Birmingham by Charles Buchanan
The fading advertisements on the walls of Birmingham's buildings paint an illuminating picture of the men and women who built an industrial boomtown in the first half of the twentieth century. Advertising expert, artist and writer Charles Buchanan unravels the mysteries behind Birmingham's ghost signs to reveal glimpses of the past now hidden in plain sight. Featuring stunning color photography by Birmingham native Jonathan Purvis.
Buchanan, Charles: - Charles Buchanan was born in Baytown, Texas where he spent his early life in the Boy Scouts and in a martial arts school. These taught him of honor and loyalty, as well as truth and hard work. In time, he moved to Colorado where he worked as a Corrections Officer for fifteen years. Here, he learned the nature of evil as he watched over some of the worst criminals in Colorado's prisons. These things all served to allow him to write the Kylari Way saga, which he continues to this day, having retired from active duty.
