Excerpt from Consolidated Bibliography of County Histories in Fifty States in 1961: Consolidated 1935-1961 County histories may in a sense be considered as memorials since it is a record of the memories of the people of the County. Thus they become cultural agents and aids in the preservation of civilization. As such they have their part in inspiring loyalty to the land of the founding fathers. The County history is a unit of a larger whole. Some authors of County histories, in their belief that the history that springs from the land is best have proceeded to include something of the geology, the animal life, and vegetation of their locality. There are in existence a surprising number of historical County atlases and County directories. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
