It’s here! The release of my latest photo book – Abandoned Coastal Defenses of Alabama – is upon us. It moves up the coastline, picking up where Abandoned Florida: Sunshine Sentinels left off. But it’s not just more of the same. I’m really proud of this one, as it tells a complete narrative of two sister forts, Morgan and Gaines, guarding the entrance of Mobile Bay. There’s a detailed description of a heated Civil War battle, complete with first person accounts from the participants. This book also has some of the best photos I’ve ever taken – it’s a real step forward to me.
