The City in the Forest, Atlanta was a spot found in the wilderness of north Georgia for the end of a railroad line. It was thought few people would stay here, because most would be passing through to somewhere else. Instead, the people remained and the town grew, growing from Terminus to Marthasville to Atlanta. The city was defined by the rail lines, and for that reason, General William T. Sherman came with the Civil War. After he left the city in ruins, Atlanta rebuilt, rising from the ashes, raising a brave and beautiful city.
For a century and a half, Atlanta has been the southern city on the move, a town of railroads, business and trade putting up and pulling down airplanes and highways, America s team and international Olympics. Along the way, professional and amateur photographers have documented Atlanta s rich visual history. This volume, Historic Photos of Atlanta, presents nearly two hundred images of the city s past, including views of its streets, the people who called it home, and the life, look, and feel of Atlanta.

Best review for Historic Photos of Washington D.C. (Historic Photos.)

With a history tied to the Mississippi River, Baton Rouge has grown from its colonial past as a military outpost favored by the French, English, and Spanish, in turn, into an American city of modern industry and rich diversity. Through the years, the people of Baton Rouge have weathered travails while developing a unique culture and city. Baton Rouge has seen occupation during the Civil War, the destruction by fire and reconstruction of the state capitol, catastrophic flooding, and political and civil conflict but also the economic impact of a growing port, the historic arrivals of Louisiana State University and Southern University, and the joyful rituals of Saturday football and the Washington’s Birthday Firemen’s Parade.
Telling the city’s story in words and vivid black-and-white, Historic Photos of Baton Rouge documents 100-plus years in the life of the Red Stick as only the camera can capture it one engaging image at a time.
