Book Synopsis Etowah County by : Bob Scarboro
Book excerpt: Etowah County, nestled in the beautiful northeast Alabama hills, has a colorful and vibrant history. Drawing from, among other sources, the collection of famed photographer Adolph Lebourg, a French immigrant who traveled to Alabama with a circus, this book combines impressive images with insightful text to provide a unique look at the county's heritage. Included are such points of interest as the Kyle Home, which once stood on the present site of the Etowah County Courthouse, the home of Alabama Power Company founder W.P. Lay, and several early movie theaters. Many local businesses and industries are highlighted in the early years of their existence.
