St. Charles Remembered

By James Willis and Jerry Buchanan

St. Charles Remembered: Voices from a Vanished Main Street preserves the memories, stories, and everyday experiences of the people who built their lives in the coal-mining town of St. Charles, Virginia. Through firsthand accounts, historical photographs, and carefully researched narratives, the book captures a way of life that once thrived in the heart of Appalachia.

Written by James Willis and Jerry Buchanan, this volume joins a growing collection of regional history works, including The Lost Lens and Between the Signs. Together, these books document the communities, traditions, landmarks, and personal stories that shaped Southwest Virginia and neighboring Appalachian regions.

Dedicated to preserving local history for future generations, St. Charles Remembered ensures that the voices of a remarkable community continue to be heard long after the storefronts have faded and the coal camps have disappeared.
