Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an expansive collection of meeting minutes and other records from the Georgia State Horticultural Society (GSHS) from its inception in 1876 to 1904. Founded by some of the most ardent horticulturists in the state, the GSHS promoted the interests of fruit growers during a time of significant agricultural innovation. The minutes, reports, and papers presented at GSHS annual meetings offer insights into the challenges and triumphs of Southern horticulture at the turn of the twentieth century. The author frames this trove of historical documents with an overview of the social, economic, and scientific context in which the GSHS operated, providing a deeper understanding of horticulture's place in Georgia's agrarian landscape. The book provides access to primary source material essential to scholars of agricultural history, and is of general interest to anyone curious about how the fruit industry shaped the economy and culture of the American South.
