Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hand-Book of the State of Georgia: Accompanied by a Geological Map of the State
The State is divided by nature into three great divisions Upper, Middle, and Lower Georgia - terms in this case equally applicable to latitude and altitude - the altitude rising with the latitude.
The wealth Of Georgia in 1860 was relatively large - the aggregate being - nearly to each white inhabitant. In 1870, five years after the war, the aggregate was reduced to being $420 to each white, or $268 to each inhabitant. The State debt until recently was far less than the value of the public property Of the State, and probably does not now exceed it.
