<span style="font-size: large;">Birmingham was founded on the fire of the steel mills
that shaped the city. Now, the flame burns brightest in hot new
entertainment districts and cool new downtown bars, restaurants and
music venues. The vibrant city turned the prosperity of its industrial
past into a lively theater district, a nationally recognized culinary
scene, and one of the finest regional art museums in the nation. From
elegant opera performances to hysterical spoofs, from rock n' roll to
Colonial songbooks, from fine bronze to folk - the broad art scene
spans from tradition to total surprise.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">As a brash young city, Birmingham attracted a colorful
cast of characters, a quirkiness still found in the remarkable culture,
unique to what is called The Magic City. Experience Birmingham from the
eyes of a native, Verna Gates, a travel writer and tour guide for fellow
journalists. 100 Things to Do in Birmingham Before You Die takes you to
the iconic restaurants and historic settings along with new surprises
and hidden jewels only known to the few, but now shared with you through
this carefully curated list.</span></div>
