The Southern States, March, 1894
Various and William Henry Edmonds
Come South and grow fruit, this 1894 magazine urges Northern farmers, painting the region as an American Italy. It gathers letters from settlers reporting their experience, a look at fruit-growing in Middle Georgia, and reflections on the South before the war. A booster's portrait of a region courting new farmers. Read the pitch that drew them south.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
