This charming, meticulously researched book includes color photographs of the ten remaining pre-Civil War cottages that dot Savannah, Georgia's, historic district. It celebrates the lives of those who built them, lived in them, and raised their families within their twelve-hundred (or fewer) square feet of space. They were brave and cowardly, faithless and true, selfish and selfless--in other words, men and women just like you and me.
