A Lafayette for Libraries Special promotion!
The guide to Lafayette’s Tour in Georgia! When Lafayette took a Grand Tour of the United States, he came through Georgia for the first time in his life. Landing in Savannah by steamboat, he first visited the Revolutionary War zone, Savannah and Augusta. From the latter he went by horse and carriage through the cities founded after the War, Warrenton, Sparta, and the capital city, Milledgeville, and finally Macon. From there he stopped at the Old Indian Agency on the Flint River before then traversing the Creek Nation to the Chattachoochee, with two stops.
From River to River will give you descriptions, road maps, photographs and more on every site he visited, and the multiple ones within them!

Reviews!
Dr. Lawrence Krumenaker has recently published two books about Lafayette’s travels, one covering Georgia, “From River to River,” and one for Alabama, “Nine Days Traveling.” In these very detailed books, the author writes about and documents the accurate locations where Lafayette actually visited in 1825, including buildings, land routes, and places in the Creek Nation. The books are amazingly detailed and if you really want to know what Lafayette visited or did not visit, these are the books. They are available from Hermograph Press, hermograph.com. — From the August 11, 2024 Atlanta Journal-Constitution, by Kenneth Thomas Jr., columnist
