Summary note
"As Georgia's second oldest and second largest city, Augusta has long been a center of commerce, industry, defense, education, tourism, and recreation. Fortunately, as the city grew and modernized, it also preserved its heritage--a beautiful blend of past and present, then and now. Then and Now: Augusta is coauthored by Dr. Lee Ann Caldwell, director of the Augusta State University Center for the Study of Georgia History; Nancy J. Glaser, director of the Augusta Museum of History; and award-winning videographer/photographer Mark Albertin. Amanda Klaus, registrar of the Augusta Museum of History, assisted with the project. Comparing our present to our past is how we understand our history. Arcadia's Then & Now series makes such local comparisons available. Books in the series offer a special view of American life by placing historical images side by side with contemporary photographs."--Publisher description.
