Although it was published a century ago and suffers from the prejudices and myopia of a bygone era, Pickett's History of Alabama is still a rich survey of pre-20th-century Alabama life and culture, one that will assuredly provide valuable context for researchers with Alabama forebears. Two-thirds of its nearly 700 pages cover the history of the state prior to 1800, and the remainder extends only as far as 1819, the year of Alabama's statehood. When the Webb Book Company was readying a reprint edition of the Pickett work, it asked Thomas McAdory Owen to prepare a collection of annals to bring the work up to date. Owen's Annals of Alabama, 1819-1900, including a subject and name index of more than 5,000 entries, constitutes the final hundred pages of the opus.
