Carved in Stone: The History of Stone Mountain by David B. Freeman (Mercer University Press, 1997)
Mercer University Press, 1997
A heroic monument to the Confederacy first envisioned in 1914 and finally dedicated in 1970 presents an ideal opportunity to explore the Lost Cause in twentieth-century America. Inexplicably, freelance historian David B. Freeman fails to seize this opportunity in his history of Stone Mountain, Georgia.
