Franklin M. Garrett’s Atlanta and Environs is one of the standard large-scale histories of Atlanta and the surrounding region, tracing the city from its earliest settlement and railroad origins through the Civil War, Reconstruction, civic growth, business development, institutions, neighborhoods, and leading families into the mid-20th century. The third volume is especially useful for genealogical and biographical research, with numerous portrait plates and accounts of prominent Atlantans.
