. Atlanta and its builders, a comprehensive history of the Gate city of the South. CENTURY MEMORIAL PUBLISHING COMPANY1902 H ?r or i. Preface CONSCIOUS of its deficiencies, the editor presents thisresult of his labors to his fellow townsmen. Althoughthe work is largely a compilation of facts and figurestouching the history of Georgias metropolis from its founding tothis good year, and no special merit of originality is claimed forit, the reader will find much in these pages as is not elsewhereeasily accessible in printed form—matter authentic and valuablefor reference. Particularly is this true of the war history recordedwith great fidelity and no little detail in the first volume. Thefacts therein contained were gathered from original sources—Fed-eral and Confederate—mostly direct from field orders, reports andcorrespondence. The task involved a vast deal of research andreading, but the editor feels compensated by the belief that a fulleror more reliable narrative of the famous Atlanta Campaign,from Dalton to Jonesboro, was never written.
