Publishing a community or county history book is like planting a tree. We hope to enjoy it ourselves, but it is also a gift to generations yet to come.
We all have known people who were a storehouse of information about our community and its history. With the passing of each of those people, we lose a little of our history, a little knowledge of our heritage.
That's why it's so important to put that information about our towns, churches, schools, organizations, and most of all, our families, down in a permanent, hardback, quality constructed book...a book to last for generations to come.
The number one reason - the most important reason - a county or a community takes on a history book project is to preserve that local history. A secondary reason is for the history book project to serve as a fund-raiser for some other worthwhile community project.
Many small towns and rural counties want and need a history book but need some direction in making that dream a reality. That's where Bell Books can help.
