Download or read book Douglasville written by Lisa Cooper and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2014 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Join Author Lisa Cooper as she recounts the history of Douglasville, Georgia in vintage images; some never before seen. The formation of Douglasville coincided when New South ideals were reshaping villages into railroad towns across the South during Reconstruction. In 1875, business and political leaders worked from the ground up to provide Douglasville with each component of a New South town, including a railroad, cotton mill, hotel, bank, and a commercial district. Today, the central business district is listed in the National Register of Historic Places and presents a snapshot regarding how the town fathers actualized their vision of industry and enterprise. Douglasville's founders would be pleased if they visited the town they created 138 years ago. It has entered the 21st century as a vibrant city with a thriving historic district, as well as a destination for businesses ranging from Google to the American Red Cross.

Book excerpt: A wise African woman once said, "if one is not careful, facts can obscure the truth." Facts speak to details, but the truth speaks to how those details unfolded. This book reveals the almost nonexistent public history of the African Americans who served in the Georgia Legislature in the 1800s. Fresh from the clutches of slavery to the highest offices in the state, these intentional men fused their voting power to impact legislation that delivered many things; among them, a county named Douglass.Tracy reveals the connection between the infamous expulsion of black legislators from office in 1868 to the eventual creation of what is now known as "Douglas" County, Georgia. She motions her readers to walk with her through the end of slavery and then directly through Reconstruction's door. Once inside, she puts forth compelling evidence that definitively ties the name Douglass (two s's) to the county created by Governor Rufus B. Bullock onOctober 17, 1870. After a series of twists and turns, she uncovers constitutional breaches that will have legal scholars across the nation debating whether some counties, to this day, are legally formed. The Ghosts of Douglass County is the intriguing untold story of murder, politics, betrayal, and the genius of African American survival in the midst of a nation's transformation.
