VISIONS OF THE BLACK BELT: A CULTURAL SURVEY OF THE HEART OF ALABAMA is a breathtaking collection of nearly four hundred beautiful photographs of the Black Belt region of Alabama. Touching on a multitude of aspects of the culturally rich area, including the farms built on the rich soil that gives the area its name to the historic churches that the locals still call home, this is a virtual tour through over two centuries of life in rural Alabama told through expert photography.
