Lucian Lamar Knight, is just off the press, and is being distributed. Practically every owner of the first volume is a subscriber to the second. The second volume is similar to the first, and contains over a thous and pages of the choicest Georgia history, compiled from authori tative sources, and written in that charming style peculiar to Mr. Knight’s gift. Thatdryness characteristic of many historic books is not found in this work; it is true to fact, comprehensive in expression, and mellow in sen timent. Every page is a pre server of some fact of Georgia history, charmingly portrayed; and the work, in complete form, should be in every home wherein is taught the love of state and a regard for the achievements of its illustrious sons and daughters. Volume 11, especially, contains matter of deep interest to the citizens of Montgomery county, and we trust that our people will join thousands in purchasing the work, the price of which is $3.80. It is more than worth the paltry sum; to be appreciated it must be seen. Mr. Knight is Compiler of State Records, an office created by the Legislature in 1908, and is a finished scholar. He is an author with few superiors, if any, in his chosen line. The work re ferred to has no connection with the state records, in any official sense, but is the result of years of patient research and applica tion to a favorite theme with the author. It is without doubt the most pleasing work of its class and scope in print. Orders may be sent direct to Mr. Knight, capitol, Atlanta, or we will take pleasure in showing the work to those who may call at The Monitor office, and for warding orders for any buyers.
