Darien and McIntosh County
ISBN: 9781531603830 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. From 1870 to 1920, McIntosh County, Georgia, was one of the most energetic communities on the southern coast. Its county seat, Darien, never had a population of more than 2,000 residents; yet, little Darien was, for a considerable time, the leading exporter of yellow pitch pine timber on the
Atlantic Coast. Burned to ashes during the Civil War, Darien rose up and, with its timber booms and sawmills, took its place among the leading towns of the "New South" of the late nineteenth century. In this unique photographic retrospective of Darien and McIntosh County, over 200 images evoke...

Sapelo Island
ISBN: 9781531603823 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The barrier islands of the south Atlantic coastline have for years held a deep attraction for all who have come into contact with them.

For more than 50 years of the twentieth century, two millionaires held sway on Sapelo, and it is their story, interwoven with that of the...
