The project which began with a few old snapshots saved in a scrapbook was expanded over the decades. Research was done, interviews arranged, and additional photos taken, which come together in a gorgeous new hardcover book showcasing the unique history and special character of the place where Karrick was born and raised and lived most of her life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMemories of Main Street\u003c\/em\u003e is a fond recollection of the people who walked the sidewalks in downtown Atmore and shopped the businesses that operated there going back to the period of the town's founding.
