Read forward and learn how folks lived less than 80 years after the War Between the States. Forward to the 1950's and 1960's and remember Belvedere Shopping Center, one of the first "malls" ever, or Misty Waters, a great swimming hole. Read the stories of children who lived at The Methodist Children's Home here, or the tales of Old Time Cops. This is merely a sampling of what you will experience in 440 pages and over 330 photographs of "Paradise in Olde Decatur."

À propos du créateur
Forrest Hill
Conyers, GA USA
Forrest Hill is from the fourth generation of farmers that arrived in Decatur GA in the late 1800's. He spent 15 years researching, compiling and writing "Paradise in Olde Decatur." He spent countless hours interviewing people as old as 104 years and collecting their stories and pictures. His book describes old time farm life and hardships, but also covers a multitude of other subjects. Folks that have read his book say they absolutely could not put it down. In fact, some had to order an additional copy because someone else picked it up and had the same response!
