Hiener Photo Book Features Old Chattanooga Photos From The Civil War To Local Personalities; Ready Tuesday At Zarzour's

  • Saturday, October 22, 2016

The new historic photo book being published by Chattanoogan.com features a wide range of interesting old Chattanooga pictures ranging from the Civil War to local personalities.

Paul Hiener's Historic Chattanooga Photos is scheduled to be ready for pickup on Tuesday at Zarzour's Restaurant. John Wilson will be there to sign copies from noon until 2 p.m.

Mr. Hiener, a longtime Chattanooga printer and lifelong resident, collected over 3,000 historic pictures of his beloved hometown. He made some of the photos available through a five-volume set called Chattanooga Yesterday and Today. The Hiener family in April 1985 donated the more than 3,000 historical Chattanooga photographs in his collection to the Chattanooga Public Library. They were eventually cataloged and are now viewable on the library's website.

This book, which is fully indexed, is a perfect companion to The Remarkable Stokes Collection previously published by Chattanoogan.com.

An edition of 1,500 copies of the 253-page Hiener book was printed by College Press at Collegedale.

The photo book, which includes over 700 photos, is in an 11x8 1/2 format with a soft cover.

The price of the book is $35, which includes the sales tax.

Zarzour's Restaurant is on Rossville Avenue behind Fire Hall #1, which is on Main Street on the Southside.

For those who want it mailed, add $5 and list where copies should be mailed. Send checks for $40 made out to Chattanoogan.com.
