4.0 out of 5 stars MOBILE, April 20, 2006
Mobile often gets short shrift because of its proximity to the singular New Orleans, but Mobile is unique and interesting in its own right. This book does a nice job of presenting the beautiful Mobile that which many are familiar. The book has interesting text and the images are crisp and clean. I really was not that familiar with Mobile so I found the book quite enlightening and frankly refreshing. Whether you buy this book because you love Mobile or because you appreciate well executed books, you will not be disappointed.
