On the eve of the Civil War, Georgia's leaders met behind closed doors to decide their state's fate. This Georgia secession convention journal records the public ceremony and the secret deliberations of the Convention of the People of Georgia, held at Milledgeville and Savannah in 1861, preserving the voices, votes and ordinances that carried Georgia out of the Union. History speaks in these pages. As a meticulously kept record of historical legislative proceedings, the volume lays out Georgia secession debates, formal resolutions and the Confederate secession ordinances that defined Southern states' rights politics at a moment of profound crisis. For anyone exploring Georgia Civil War history or working with American secession convention records, it stands as a central Civil War primary source and an indispensable Civil War research reference and primary source for historians, students and family researchers alike. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this landmark document has been restored for today's and future generations. Originally issued in 1861, it now returns as a careful modern presentation for readers and researchers. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure - this key item among Confederate states primary documents belongs on the shelf of every reader drawn to the drama, detail and consequence of the Civil War era.
