SUMMARY
Greene County, Georgia, follows the lives of a people once burdened by the yoke of slavery through their struggles and important accomplishments of today. Located 80 miles east of Atlanta, Greene County is a place with a history rooted in faith.

This volume also illuminates some of the area's most influential residents, including Abraham Colby, the county's first African American to serve as representative in the general assembly in 1868, and Dr. Calvin M. Baber, the county's second African-American physician.Hillman, Mamie Lee is the author of 'Greene County Georgia', published 2004 under ISBN 9780738516073 and ISBN 0738516074.
