Purchased this book for my dad, an Atlanta native. He loved it!Makes a great gift for any Atlanta dweller, and is quite a bit of fun to look at.
If you are from Atlanta, you will love this book. Lots of history about that specific area. Very interesting and detailed.
This book shows pictures of Atlanta from way back and from the same vantage point now. It is quite interesting.
I bought this as a gift for a friend in Montana. Also got the "Gone with the Wind" book. These are the first 2 books for his new Bed and Breakfast. He loved it. That's all that matters.
Excellent book that anyone interested in Atlanta history should have. We have shared it with guests and they are very interested as well. Highly recommended.
