"History books sometimes revise history, particularly when the author chooses to interpret the facts of history as a polemic of her or his own perception. Happily, Tommy Jenkins has chosen not to present history through his own eyes, but through photographs, maps & drawings of those who came before him..."--from the introduction by Island resident & author Bill Diehl. St. Simons, unknown to many, has played a major role in this nation's history. This publication combines new photographs including historical reenactments taken at the 250th anniversary of the battle of Bloody Marsh at Frederica, the first settlement & fortification on St. Simons, with old photographs from as far back as post-Civil War. Factual maps, text & photographs combine in the pages of this book to create a visual experience for the reader. In some cases an old photo is complemented by a recent photo of the same area. These "then & now" combinations give the reader first-hand experience of the changes in the Island's history.

Since it first appeared in 1956, Mrs. Vanstory's rich narrative of the barrier islands from Ossabaw to Cumberland--and the mainland towns along the way--has become the standard popular history of Georgia's golden coast. Thoroughly revised and with over forty new illustrations, this edition traces the crucial and colorful role these islands have played from the sixteenth century to the twentieth. Home, at one time or another, to the American Indians, the French, the Spanish, and the English; to buccaneers, friars, and priests; to Puritans and Scottish Highlanders; to slave traders, planters, soldiers, statesmen, and millionaires, these islands are as rich in history as they are in natural beauty. Georgia's Land of the Golden Isles now takes the reader through the years from General James Oglethorpe to President Jimmy Carter, unfolding the stories of the lives that have touched, or been touched by, the golden isles of Georgia.
