Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. xxxiii, 209 pages : illustrations, maps, color photographs ; 26 cm ; ISBN 9780820343136, 0820343137 ; OCLC 760068681 ; LCCN 2011044418 ; LC F294.A862 O24 2012 Dewey 363.7509758231 ; SIGNED by authors Ren Davis and Helen Davis, on the title page ; "Friends Fund Publication" ; "In 'Atlanta a…nd Environs,' historian Franklin M. Garrett wrote that Oakland Cemetery is "Atlanta's most tangible link between the past and the present." Within its forty-eight acres are more than seventy thousand personal stories--of settlers and immigrants who forged a city from a rowdy railroad camp, former slaves who carved out lives in a segregated world, soldiers in blue and gray who were cut down in a brutal civil war, and civic and business visionaries who rebuilt the Phoenix City from the ashes of war and carried it to prominence on the international stage. Today, Atlanta's oldest public cemetery remains a must-see destination for anyone interested in the city's colorful story. Past the grieving mien of the Lion of Atlanta, which guards nearly three thousand unknown Confederate soldiers, visitors can pay respect to those who made Atlanta history--former slave Carrie Steele Logan, who founded the first orphanage for African American children; Joseph Jacobs, owner of the pharmacy where Coca-Cola was first served as a fountain drink; Morris and Emanuel Rich, founders of the storied Rich's Department Stores; golfing Grand Slam legend Bobby Jones; Gone With the Wind author Margaret Mitchell; Maynard Jackson, the city's first African American mayor, and many others. Aside from its importance as a historic site, Oakland is among the nation's finest examples of a rural garden cemetery, characteristic of the nineteenth-century movement to transform stark burial grounds into pastoral landscapes for both the repose of the dead and the enjoyment of the living."--P. [2] of cover; color photographic stiff paper wrappers ; Oakland Cemetery is the oldest cemetery, as well as one of the largest green spaces, in Atlanta, Georgia, U.S. Founded as "Atlanta Cemetery" in 1850 on six acres of land southeast of the city, it was renamed in 1872 to reflect the large number of oak and magnolia trees growing in the area. By that time, the city had grown and the cemetery had enlarged correspondingly to the current 48 acres. Since then, Atlanta has continued to expand, so that the cemetery is now located in the center of the city. Oakland is an excellent example of a Victorian-style cemetery, and reflects the "garden cemetery" movement started and exemplified by Mount Auburn Cemetery in Massachusetts. The original 6 acres of Oakland remains one of the oldest historical plots of land in Atlanta, most of the rest of the city having been burned in 1864. Because of its age and location, the cemetery directly reflects the history and changing culture of the City of Atlanta Georgia and the significant events it has seen. Names of Atlanta Georgia streets, buildings, parks, subdivisions, and more can be found within the cemetery gates. An estimated 70,000 people are interred at Oakland, and while the last plots were sold in 1884, there are still regular burials today. These are largely conducted on family-owned plots or areas owned by Atlanta (one of the most recent being former mayor Maynard Jackson, whose plot was contributed by the city). One way in which Atlanta's evolution can be traced at Oakland is the physical arrangement of the cemetery. Threads of civic history are interwoven in Oakland's layout: Atlanta's small-town beginnings, slavery, war, religious sectarianism and industrialization. The cemetery layout includes the: Original Six Acres, Knit Mill, Bell Tower Ridge, Hogpen Corner, Greenhouse Valley, Potter's Field, African American Grounds, Confederate Memorial Grounds, Jewish Sections and Roger's Hill. ; FINE.
