Pleasant Georgia is named for the plantation that was built by Solomon Graves beginning in 1819. His land holdings totaled over 7500 acres at one point. The original plantation home which still exists was built in 1835. The land remained in the Graves family until the final 426 acres were sold in 1958. In the early 1980s 450 acres of the former plantation not including the 22 acres immediately surrounding the original plantation home were sold to a speculator/developer who had been assembling land at Interstate 20 interchanges east of Atlanta. By the late 1980s the land had been rezoned to a mix of industrial multi-family highway commercial and residential.<br /> <br /> See also: Perkerson Madora Field. White Columns in Georgia.

18315023Boston: Massachusetts Sabbath School Union 1831. First Edition Thus. Hardcover. Good. 24mo. Pp. 142 followed by two pages of publisher's advertisements. Frontis. engraving. Tan ribbed roan half bound marbled boards gilt titles and rules on the spine. Edges trimmed. Free endpaper ink signature "J. S. Noyes Concord." Spine ends chipped light foxing. Though stated on the title page as "Revised by the Publishing Committee" the publishing year corresponds with the copyright claim and we have been unable to discover an earlier edition.<br /> As told by the pious "Father Allerton" to his grandchildren and the anonymous author. Each chapter is followed by study questions. The former owner J. S. Noyes is likely the Concord lawyer who in 1840 missed by 15-feet being hit by a chunk of meteor that landed in New Hampshire. He kept the rock for years before it was analyzed and proven to be meteoric supporting his story that it landed nearby when he was out for a post-dinner walk. A scarce juvenile with OCLC listing this 1831 edition as the earliest held and that by only two libraries - Harvard and the Newberry. Massachusetts Sabbath School Union hardcover

1879028177Philadelphia: American Sunday School Union 1879. 12mo. 7 pages. The only recorded copy in OCLC for this items is at the American Antiquarian Society. If a Sunday School would send $20.80 it would receive 50 items in the catalogue as it states: "contains over 12000 printed pages.with 212 full page large fine engravings." The National Educational Journal in 1879 listed this along with ads which were predominately for religious publications. What this indicates is that basic evangelical religious ideas were interwoven with the primary school educators of the day. The tracts they offered neglected any ideas that black people existed and also often made negative comments about Roman Catholicism. While the modern day reader sees them only as simplistic moral religious tales it is important to know that this was the everyday staple for the vast majority of Americans on the farm or small town.String bound toning to edges crease through center.

Black leather spine marbled boards gilt titles. "The Children's Crusade is the name given to a variety of fictional and factual events which happened in 1212 that combine some or all of these elements: visions by a French or German boy; an intention to peacefully convert Muslims in the Holy Land to Christianity; bands of children marching to Italy; and children being sold into slavery. A study published in 1977 cast doubt on the existence of these events and many historians now believe that they were not or not primarily children but multiple bands of "wandering poor" in Germany and France some of whom tried to reach the Holy Land and others who never intended to do so. Early versions of events of which there are many variations told over the centuries are largely apocryphal. American Sunday-School Union hardcover books
