Item Description

This much-anticipated book is about the true stories of the Dodge County Land Litigation. It has been dedicated to "To those long deceased, who wrongfully lost land, homes, and lives during the turbulent "Dodge Era" of the late 1800's in the three-rivers area of the State of Georgia"
Jane Walker's book is "a daring and comprehensive telling of a story almost lost to us. Only the graveyards and the destroyed forests bear witness to the gigantic loss of the Dodge wars. They say that to know our past is to know who we are. You will read this fascinating history with great interest and no small degree of grief for the homeland and its people. The inclusion of newspaper accounts, legal documents, and oral histories add to the power of this fine and long-awaited book. Reviewers write that "it is a gripping story and well-told."
