The end of the year means we start cleaning out our desks, shelves - even the refrigerator.

Pictured below is a set of random, never-before-read books we've put together, focusing on American history. (We've since added to the set since the photo was taken.)

If you're interested in entering to take these home, drop us a comment below: We'd love to hear what your favorite piece of Charlotte history is. The Penguin before 2010? The Hornets before they were sold? Downtown before it became uptown?

(P.S. - Don't know much about Charlotte's history? Ask a question instead, and we'll get our resident history buff David Aaron Moore to look into it.)

One winner will be picked randomly at the end of the day Wednesday and notified later this week.

**Must be able to come by CL's offices at the N.C. Music Factory to pick up books between the hours of 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Please make sure to leave correct email when commenting.
