This So Remote Frontier: The Chattahoochee Country of Alabama and GeorgiaHistoric Chattahoochee Commission, 1980 - 352 sider "This is the story of that area of Georgia and Alabama through which the Chattahoochee River and its tributaries run. Unlike the usual textbook history, it is the story of the men who explored the country, settled it, farmed it, built on it, coveted it, fought over it and, if they were torn from it, never forgot it."--Inside front cover. |
