<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Many cities with a population of 150,000 or less struggle to compete with their larger neighbors and often have trouble attracting residents and new businesses. This book explores the numerous ways these cities can compete on a larger scale without sacrificing their small-town character. It utilizes experiences from other cities, as well as from the author's time revitalizing Augusta, Maine (pop. 19,000). Featuring chapters that focus on organizing volunteers, adhering to aesthetics, marketing, urban planning, and more, this book tackles key paths every small city should follow when attempting to redevelop its image.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Michael G. Hall</b> is the executive director for the Augusta Downtown Alliance, a nonprofit affiliated with the Main Street America program, a subsidiary of the National Trust focused on economic development, marketing, community engagement, and art.
