About the Author

Authors Glenda Ralston Major, Forrest Clark Johnson III, and Kaye Lanning Minchew bring to life the stories of many people, places, and events related to LaGrange and its history. Using photographs, maps, and illustrations, they trace the history from Indians to modern times. The authors appreciate the resources at the Georgia Department of Archives and the many individuals and groups who have donated materials to the Troup County Archives since opening in 1983. This is the most recent volume about LaGrange and west Georgia history these authors have written.
