American Revolution in Georgia, 1763-1789

This is not a Print-On-Demand or Facsimile copy but the original book published in 1958 by University of Georgia Press. Written by Kenneth Coleman, professor of history at the University of Georgia in Athens, he was the preeminent authority of his generation on colonial and revolutionary Georgia. He wrote what is probably the most widely read history of the state, Georgia History in Outline (1955), which has been revised many times and remains in print. It has proven to be the all-time best-seller of the University of Georgia Press. Coleman's major work, The American Revolution in Georgia (1958), which was the outgrowth of his Ph.D. dissertation, remains the standard general academic view of that period in Georgia history. The text is heavily footnoted and has several maps.
