This is a list not only of the early settlers of Georgia but of the first settlers of Georgia, and it is apparently a complete list of all those who were sent by the Trustees for Establishing the Colony of Georgia in America under Oglethorpe and the Earl of Egmont. Covering the period from 1732 to 1741, these two lists together contain the names and details of 3,000 immigrants, most of whom were assigned lots in Savannah and Frederica and a good number of whom would soon leave the colony for the Carolinas. Information pertaining to each settler consists, generally, of name, age, occupation, place of origin, names of spouse, children and other family members, dates of embarkation and arrival, place of settlement, and date of death. In addition, some of the more notorious aspects of the settlers' lives are recounted in brief, telltale sketches.

Abraham Baldwin: Patriot, Educator, and Founding Father is the definitive biography of Abraham Baldwin, a highly significant early-American leader who helped assemble the framework of American democracy and who may be the least known signer of the Constitution. Baldwin served as a Georgia State Legislator, as a State Representative to the Confederation Congress, the Constitutional Convention, first president of the University of Georgia, a Representative in the First U.S. Congress, and later as a U.S. Senator. It is must reading for laymen and historians alike. The book presents a graphic portrait of a man whose amazingly broad scope and vision left a lasting mark on his country and his adopted state of Georgia.
