Historic Photos of Mobile

by Carol Ellis, Scotty E Kirkland, Scotty Kirkland

Mobile's long history includes joyous Mardi Gras celebrations and tragic natural disasters. Civil War and segregation, shipping and manufacturing, dirt streets and booming wharves are part of its fascinating story.

In World War II, its population grew exponentially as the city became an important shipbuilder for America's arsenal.
