Overview

Experience the architecture and fascinating history of the Savannah River Plantations with author Frank T. Wheeler.

Savannah is as Southern a place as has ever existed, and the Savannah River Plantations were the pinnacle of Southern heritage. Place names such as Richmond Oakgrove, Mulberry Grove, Drakies, Whitehall, and Colerain signified extensive land holdings, moss-draped oaks, and a culture not found anywhere else in the world.

In Savannah River Plantations, author Frank T. Wheeler, in conjunction with the Georgia Historical Society, has crafted an in-depth look at the culture, geography, and society that made up plantation life. Drawing on the extensive photograph collection of the Historical Society, as well as his own research and knowledge, Wheeler combines unique photographs with illuminating text to create a work that will appeal to both those with a lifelong interest in the area and newcomers to the region's rich history. Savannah River Plantations is a most Southern look at the most Southern of places
