Cape Charles: A Railroad Town is one of the most comprehensive historical accounts of Cape Charles, Virginia ever written. Jim Lewis took on the daunting task of tracing the history of this boomtown from its early beginnings in the nineteenth century to modern times. Historians, visitors, and residents alike find this book to be an invaluable and entertaining resource. Jim’s legacy of thorough research remains for all who want to discover the fascinating history of Cape Charles, Virginia. In recent years, Cape Charles has undergone another economic boom reinventing itself as a small beach tourist-friendly town and home for many retirees. The republication of Cape Charles: A Railroad Town preserves Jim Lewis’ important historical research and was made possible through the joint efforts of Cape Charles Historical Society and Xenophon Press. We are proud to return this important work to print.
