Savannah Then and Now - People and Places

By Polly Cooper

Savannah Then and Now - People and Places is a photographic tour de force of one of America's best-preserved cities.

Pairing vintage photos with their modern-day equivalent, this books takes in many of the elegant squares first planned out by James Oglethorpe in pre-Revolutionary Georgia.

The preservation movement is strong within the city and as the pairingsshow the delapidated state of the Victorian District, and the dramatic transformation that has taken place in the last twenty years.

All the large 18th-century house museums are featured including Mercer House (made famous by the book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil), Davenport House, Wayne- Gordon House, Harper-Fowlkes House, and the Green-Meldrim House occupied by Sherman in 1864 after his march to the sea.
