Illustrations (some in color). Map inside back cover. On March 11, 1913, Malcolm Bell, Jr., was born in Savannah. He attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill where in addition to academics he excelled in athletics. In 1939, Malcolm became involved with The Federal Writers? Project, part of the Work Progress Administration designed to provide jobs for historians, teachers, writers, and librarians. Malcolm and his wife Muriel, both photographers, were invited by Mary Granger, the District Supervisor, to take part in a project documenting the oral histories of elderly African Americans in coastal Georgia, many themselves former slaves. The result was Drums and Shadows, published in 1940. When the United States entered World War II, so did Malcolm Bell, Jr. as a member of the United States Coast Guard. By 1944 Bell was Captain of a Coast Guard Freighter ferrying much needed supplies to troops in the Pacific. Eventually Malcolm would return home to a career in banking as President, and later chairman, of the Savannah Bank and Trust, but the two would pursue their love of history. Malcolm would serve as President of the Georgia Historical Society, where he wrote extensively, contributing articles to the Georgia Historical Quarterly. Malcolm also wrote several books including Historic Savannah (1977), Savannah Ahoy (1959) and Major Butler?s Legacy: Five Generations of a Slaveholding Family (1987). He received the GHS John Macpherson Berrien Award for lifetime achievement in 2000. Savannah, a thriving American city holding firmly to its past is shown in the sensitive photographs of N. Jane Iseley. The text is by Malcolm Bell, Jr., s Savannah native and esteemed local historian. Sponsored by Historic Savannah Foundation, Inc. whose preservation efforts have been acclaimed far and wide, SAVANNAH is a tribute to the city founded by James Edward Oglethorpe in 1733. Publication was made possible by Charles H. Morris and Morris Newspaper Corporation of Savannah.

Softcover. Zustand: Good. Cover a bit scuffed and marked. Clean and fresh contents. Sound overall. Publisher's note: Encompassing American history from the eve of the Revolution to the first decades of our own century, this book is a history of five generations of the Butler's, a family sundered at its very core by the same institution of slavery that would lead the nation into the horror and destruction of the Civil War. To his family, Major Butler's legacy consisted of two well-appointed properties in Philadelphia, the rich plantation lands in the South that paid for those properties, and more than nine hundred human beings bound to the soil of the plantations. Tracing the Butlers' private and public lives at their homes in Philadelphia and on their plantations in South Carolina and Georgia, Bell surveys every aspect of life on the great agricultural empire assembled by Pierce Butler for his heirs. He tells of the fields where rice, cotton, and sugar were cultivated; of the small fleet of ships that carried those goods to port and brought provisions to the isolated island plantations on their return voyages; and of the Butler's often testy relations with their managers, particularly with the paradoxical Roswell King. But most dramatically, Bell portrays the lives of the slaves, referred to by Pierce Butler as "the wretched Affricans," whose toil brought riches to the family. He describes their work and the punishment they could expect when they transgressed in some way; their diet and health and the amusements with which they consoled themselves; and the "day of weeping" that came when Major Butler's wastrel grandson, in an effort to regain solvency, sold half the slave community- 460 men, women, and children- in an enormous auction at Savannah's Ten Broeck Raceway in 1859.
