Description

When Hardy Ivy built his small cabin on a ridge in the North Georgia wilderness in 1833, no one could have imagined his property would grow to become the internationally recognized city Atlanta is today.

Ivy is just one of those whose impact on Atlanta has earned him the right to be called a legendary local.

This book includes those with international acclaim like Cable News Network founder and environmentalist Ted Turner, civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and former president Jimmy Carter.

No less important, but lesser known, are former slave Carrie Steel Logan, who started the first orphanage for black children in Georgia, and May Belle Mitchell, the mother of Gone With the Wind author Margaret Mitchell.

May Belle was a legend in her own right for leading the Atlanta women,s Equal Suffrage League in the early 1900s.

These stories span centuries, highlighting only some of the true legendary locals of Intown Atlanta.
