The city of Americus--seat of Sumter County, Georgia--has a rich past that stretches back hundreds of years. The people and events that shaped Americus are unique and compelling, and the history of the area shares many parallels with the larger history of the South. From the pioneer era in southern Georgia to the present day, the triumphs and toils of Sumter County are often mirrored in the story of the South. Like many Southern communities, Americus features a fascinating heritage, the details of which can surprise even longtime residents. The area's history overflows with an intriguing cast of characters whose exploits have helped to enrich the colorful story of Americus. This portion of southern Georgia has also played host to more than its fair share of famous personalities, from C.S.A. President Jefferson Davis at the end of the Civil War to Yasser Arafat, who visited President Jimmy Carter at Sumter County home. Remembering Americus, Georgia: Essays on Southern Life, by local resident and historian Alan Anderson, is a delightful compilation of historical vignettes drawn from Anderson's work for the Times-Recorder newspaper in Americus. Anderson's insightful and entertaining writings offer a glimpse into the history of Americus and Sumter County, and reveal how the area's past is reflected in the history of the South.

"A remarkably fine work of creative scholarship." —C. Vann Woodward, New York Review of Books In 1860, when four million African Americans were enslaved, a quarter-million others, including William Ellison, were "free people of color." But Ellison was remarkable. Born a slave, his experience spans the history of the South from George Washington and Thomas Jefferson to Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis. In a day when most Americans, black and white, worked the soil, barely scraping together a living, Ellison was a cotton-gin maker—a master craftsman. When nearly all free blacks were destitute, Ellison was wealthy and well-established. He owned a large plantation and more slaves than all but the richest white planters. While Ellison was exceptional in many respects, the story of his life sheds light on the collective experience of African Americans in the antebellum South to whom he remained bound by race. His family history emphasizes the fine line separating freedom from slavery.
