Georgia

Sherman’s March to the Sea left behind a smoldering Atlanta and a haunted Savannah, but Georgia history often follows reckonings with stories of resilience. Tour the legacy of a home worth rebuilding with a midnight train from Cumberland Island over to Macon. Take advantage of the unobstructed vistas of Rock City in the North Georgia mountains or the panorama offered by a Delta window seat. Pop open a Stuckey’s Pecan Log Roll and peruse our catalogue of Georgia history books. [View all Georgia books]

$24.99 $18.74 Save 25%

Marietta is one of the largest and most historic cities in northwest Georgia.

As one of Atlanta's largest suburbs, Marietta is the home and workplace for thousands of Georgians, and has been a homestead since 1834. A series of unfortunate fires in the 1850s partially destroyed the city, and caught fire once again in 1864 as part of Sherman's March to the Sea. Some of Marietta's history has been preserved, but much of it has been lost to the ravages of war, time, and gentrification.Then and Now: Marietta Revisitedtakes the reader down Marietta's streets through time, back into what is almost a different world than the modern small city we know today.
