I REMEMBER DAHLONEGA
A series of four books by Dahlonega’s very own
ANNE AMERSON
The I Remember Dahlonega series is a fascinating collection of local history & lore as told to Anne by the very people who grew up and lived here. The invaluable memoirs of these folks include “oral traditions” handed down from one generation to the next. Anne lets these people tell their own story in their own words such that the fullness of their warmth and wisdom is not “lost in the translation”.
However, much to her credit, Anne enhances her work with her own thorough research. Thus, the reader gets a very complete picture of the people, places and events which wove the total fabric of Dahlonega & Lumpkin County’s 170+ years of history and tradition.
