Savannah in History: A Guide to More Than 75 Sites in Historical Context - Paperback

by Rodney Carlisle (Author), Loretta Carlisle (Author)

Savannah in History features over 90 sites in Savannah, Georgia, presented organized by historical era, with over 100 color photos.

This presentation is especially important for a city with a long and varied history like Savannah, where colonial sites are virtually next door to antebellum, Civil War, and important modern sites. This guidebook conveys a clear picture of the evolution of the city from its beginnings to the present and helps the tourist, and even the resident, unravel and understand the dozens of historic buildings and monuments and several excellent museums. Like the others in this series on St. Augustine, Key West, Charleston, and Tampa, it serves as both a guidebook and keepsake.
