The Southern Farm-Henry W Grady-1880 LH-Cover
Item #: NEW-0010322
|
Click image to enlarge

Unusual graphics showing portraits of two prominent Georgians who joined in the publication of The Southern Farm, Atlanta Ga. Henry W Grady played a prominent part in urging his fellow Georgians to reconcile with the south through mutual farming interests. Dr William L Jones was a former Confederate soldier who joined with Grady to be the Editor. There is an entry on Grady on the web with the New Georgia Encyclopedia. Here is an amusing story about Grady that I found on the web. That sense of humor and quick wit got Grady through more than one difficult situation. Once at a banquet of northern elites, he was waxing eloquently about the brilliant prospects for northern investments in a New South determined to rise from the ashes of defeat. Suddenly, Grady spotted in the audience, General William T. Sherman, the celebrated Yankee soldier who was credited with defeating and burning much of Georgia, and particularly Atlanta, on his infamous "march to the sea." Without missing a beat, Grady acknowledged the general by noting that the people of Georgia thought Sherman an able military man, "but a might careless about fire."
