Situated along the Georgia border, Augusta is known for its golf,
beautiful private gardens and southern culture. But its history is also
brimming with strange stories yet to be told. A beleaguered German
princess gave the city its name. A haunted pillar survived a tornado
that destroyed the area in 1878. The famous Wright brothers opened a
branch of their flying school here in 1911. Author and historian Tom
Mack uncovers and celebrates these gems hidden in Augusta's rich and
teeming history.
