BOOK REVIEW: Historic Photos of Atlanta

Atlanta was once known as the city within a forest and was the end of the railroad line. The town finally grew and became Terminus, then Marthasville and then Atlanta. After the march of Sherman, Atlanta laid in ruins. But it rose from the ashes and became a city of railroads, business, trade and even the Olympics. Professional and amateur photographers have chronicled the growth and documented the history through the years. This volume presents nearly two hundred images of the past and gives you a feel for the people and their lives through the years. Historic photos of Atlanta would make a great gift or coffee table book for anyone interested in the many faces of this southern city. Available on our sidebar ads from Amazon.
