A book chronicling the history of the Decatur Square will be available for purchase tomorrow at the Decatur Visitors Center. “A Walk Through Time: The Decatur Square” has been 12 years in the making. It’s a leather-bound edition with stitched pages (fancy) and has color photographs throughout. Many local writers also contributed to the book.

It’s $50, and I want to get a copy for the hometown history. My kids were born here and are growing up here, so it’s important to me. Even if you don’t need one for your bookshelf, Christmas is just around the corner, and this would make a great gift for any hardcore Decatur-ites on your list.

Messenger reporter Brandon Evans wrote a story about the book for the Oct. 25 issue of the paper. If you missed it, check it out here.
