DOWNLOAD EBOOKAlthough 2009 marked the bicentennial of Baldwin County, the history began long before and included Native Americans, European colonists, pioneers, Chief Red Eagle, Andrew Jackson, William Bartram, and soldiers of the North and South. However, what makes Baldwin County's character today is the story of the growth in the early 1900s. As the railroad began to replace the Federal Road and Mobile Bay boats, land developers voiced the call, and Baldwin County boomed as a destination for colonists. Immigrants from all over the world came for land and for work in lumber and agriculture, building towns to fulfill their dreams. And somehow they succeeded in maintaining their cultural heritage in more than 20 distinct ethnic communities, most still thriving today. This is their story, their legacy, and the heritage of a county--the people.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA written history devoted almost exclusively to Clarke County Alabama and its people. Quoting from books published before this (1923) and recording his own personal accounts, the author, a resident of Clarke County since 1875, gives his personal observation of Clarke County places and events.In the introduction, the author states, " This book will doubtless be read with much interest by the present generation living in Clarke, as well as by the generations to follow. If it should be preserved and handed down through the coming years, it may, in the far distant future, fall under the eye of some descendent of some Clarke countian and enable him or her to look back through the avenue of time and get a mental picture of Clarke County in the nineteenth and twentieh centuries."
