A very well-researched and well-written piece on the history of this well-known landmark. Includes the historical context of the station's construction, the history of the station through the years, and even the conversion of the building to its current use as a theme hotel and conference center. The author provides a wealth of photographs of the station through the years, including construction photos, photos of the structures demolished to make way for the station, and even historical photos of the long-gone stations in Chattanooga which preceeded Terminal Station. A must for any enthusiast with an interest in stations in general, or this great one in particular. Highly recommended.

Justin Strickland's "Terminal Station" has just the right amount of text with a wonderful assortment of pictures documenting the history of Chattanooga's Terminal Station. I have read the entire book and it is most informative, well arranged, a fun book to read if you like railroads and architecture.
