Sawmill Towns and the New South, 1865 -1910 - HB In-Person
This class is full. Please click the add to waitlist button below.
The destruction of the Civil War left the southern United States in shambles. The South's economy and ravaged agriculture left people scrambling for any opportunity to make some sort of profit in the under-industrialized New South. Between 1865 and 1910, lumber companies quickly began purchasing land, creating a population boom. Thus, sawmill towns established a history of traditions and community that still echo in the South today. Fee: $5.00
