Macon

Known as the �Heart of Georgia,� Macon was an affluent city by the time of the Civil War and escaped the destruction that accompanied Sherman�s march to the sea. During Macon�s prosperous Victorian period, opulent residences and ornate public buildings were constructed; these, along with those of the antebellum period, have been preserved. Author Glenda Barnes Bozeman resides in nearby Gray, Georgia. Originally from history-rich Pensacola, Florida, and as a Florida Pioneer Descendant, Glenda�s love for history and historic places inspired the research that led to Then & Now: Macon.
