The History of Georgia in the Eighteenth Century, as Recorded in the Reports of the Georgia Bar Association: Read Before the Thirty-Eight Annual ... Georgia, June 3, 1921 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book takes a unique approach to exploring the history of Georgia in the 18th century by drawing from a surprising source: the annual reports of the Georgia Bar Association. The author meticulously compiles and presents a rich narrative by weaving together various papers, addresses, and monographs penned by lawyers who served on the Association. This unconventional method offers a fresh perspective on the legal, political, and social landscape of the fledgling colony. The book delves into the establishment of Georgia as a trust estate, charting the complex land grants and treaties with Native American tribes. It examines the controversial figure of Thomas Causton, a powerful bailiff who wielded significant influence over the colony's early legal system, and the absence of lawyers during the trustee period. The author reveals the struggles and injustices faced by the colonists under the trustees' rule, ultimately leading to the surrender of the colony to the British Crown. By highlighting the legal and political intricacies of the period, the book illuminates the challenges and opportunities faced by the colonists in shaping their own destiny. The author's careful research and compelling narrative provide a fascinating glimpse into the early history of Georgia, offering valuable insights into the formation of a new society and its evolving legal framework.
