Sandy Springs has always been a community in transition. Bounded to the north by the Chattahoochee River, the area was contested by both the Cherokee Nation and the Creek Confederacy, who used the river as a territorial marker. To the south, the urban center of Atlanta has blessed and, at times, cursed her rural neighbor with close proximity. Today Sandy Springs is still in transition. From a rural village to one of Georgia's newest cities, the history of Sandy Springs is a story of change.

Autorenporträt
Author Kimberly M. Brigance, curator of historic resources at Heritage Sandy Springs, has selected images from the foundation's archives, private collections, and other repositories that best reflect the land and people of Sandy Springs. Combined with the knowledge of local historian Morris V. Moore, Images of America: Sandy Springs provides a glimpse of a proud rural past beneath the sprawl of modern suburbia.
