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. It's a street-by-street history of the place - of timber, turpentine, and cotton - recounted by a loving daughter. Karrick intended the book to be an informative guidebook, but what emerges on its pages is much, much more. It's a vibrant portrait of small-town life in a Deep South state, the first of its kind about Atmore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNancy Karrick was a co-researcher with her husband Charles on the writing of his history of \u003cem\u003eThe Bank of Atmore\u003c\/em\u003e.
