Originally published in 1963, this copy has been revised to include architectural landmarks, heroes, and events that have shaped the years since 1963 to bring her fond portrait of Atlanta up to the present (as of 1986). Taking as the heart of her book, the street that makes the city beat, the author recounts portions of Atlanta's history that distinguish it as one of the commercial and cultural centers of the South. From her impeccable prose, we learn about some of the city's more illustrious inhabitants: Henry Grady, William Hartsfield, Ralph McGill, Margaret Mitchell, Bobby Jones, Martin Luther King, Jr. Ted Turner, and the corporation that has become virtually synonymous with its mother city - Coco-Cola.
