Abstract

In honor of Georgia's Bicentennial (1733-1933), the General Assembly urged each county to appoint a historian to write its history. This article describes those county histories and the people who wrote them, and it concludes that these books "tell us as much about the historians (and their audiences) as about the past they described."
