Griswoldville
by William Harris Bragg
"This book attempts to touch briefly on all aspects of the story of Griswoldville, as village (in peace and war) and as battlefield (in both Stoneman's Raid and Sherman's March). Since there would have been no Griswoldville without Samuel Griswold, it seemed fitting to begin and end the story with him. The account of his life, enterprises, and village form a thread that runs throughout the narrative.
Nonetheless, that thread occasionally disappears as it interweaves with descriptions of those momentous events of the war's last year that were to alter forever Griswold and all his creations. Illustrated with nearly one hundred photographs, drawings, and maps, this is the definitive study of Griswoldville."--BOOK JACKET.
