In January 1861 a state convention voted by a narrow margin to secede from the Union. Thus did the state of Georgia begin its often rebellious participation in the Civil War. While Georgia troops fought far away, back at home Governor Joseph Emerson Brown, a strict advocate of states' rights, increasingly bristled at the centralizing impulses of the Confederate government. In this popular treatment of the Civil War in Georgia, F. N. Boney tells the story of how the strain of this modern, total war relentlessly ravaged the state's resources and weakened its resolve to fight for the Confederate cause. Heavy casualties on the battle field and accelerating inflation on the home front combined to undermine the morale of the Confederacy and the citizens of Georgia.Boney vividly describes these effects and shows how in response Governor Brown and other Georgia leaders clashed more frequently and more bitterly with President Jefferson Davis. Following their governor's lead, white Georgians complained about Confederate policy decisions they believed were destroying their chances of winning the war. As Northern armies knifed through their state, whites feared the devastation the Yankees left in their wake. At the same time Georgia's slaves, almost half the total population, grew increasingly restive as they greeted the bluebellies' arrival as the coming of liberation and the day of Jubilee.Narrating Sherman's pivotal capture of Atlanta on 2 September 1864 and his crushing march to the sea, which ended with the fall of Savannah in late December, the author recounts the effects of this slow death of the Confederacy on the psyche of Georgians black and white. In the process, Boney shows howrebel Georgia gradually overcame its grief and was eventually reunited with the north in a national reconciliation.

Extremely diappointing
Style: 15" (2 x 2Ah)
I purchased a Greenworks Impact Wrench for my son. I was so so impressed with it that I purchased one for myself & decided to try their 2x24V 15" Cordless String Trimmer. Unfortunately just because a company makes one excellent tool doesn't mean that all their tools are good. The first problem I had with the trimmer was that it didn't come with the batteries or charger in the ad. It was supposed to have 4.0Ah batteries but came with 2.0Ah. In addition, more often than not, the manual didn't agree with actual parts & features. The trimmer requires two 24V batteries to operate. It can't be used with one battery even though it has a "low power" setting. On full power the trimmer had adequate power for most weeds but is no where near as powerful as a gas trimmer. The batteries only lasted about 20 minutes (this trimmer does not have a brushless motor). The 2 line feed head is not designed for easy reloading. In fact, it is the worst design I've ever owned. I've decided to return it & try one of their 2x24V brushless motor trimmers which should provide more power & has 4.0Ah batteries but costs significantly more.

CUSTOMER SERVICE IS TRASH - edited
Style: 15" (2 x 2Ah)
I bought this product and it arrived with one battery that doesn't charge out of the two. Without 2 batteries, it won't work at all. Attempted to contact Greenworks with the number Amazon provided. They were closed on the weekends. Called Monday and the message stated that customer support closed early. Attempted using the Chat option for help. It states the model number STE304, doesn't exist, so I couldn't proceed. Called on Tuesday. I have been on hold for over an hour and still nothing. Will update. After about an hour and a half on hold (yes, the offer the option of leaving a call back number, which I didn't use as I had to work from home to access customer service when they were open. Also, they needed me to try out stuff with the batteries and give them serial numbers, etc.) The lady I spoke to spoke English and appeared to be US based. Eventually, after doing the "did you restart it" version of troubleshooting, it was indeed determined my battery didn't work and they offered to ship me a new one at no cost. I then had to dispose of my non-working battery in the proper manner, and our yearly toxic garbage pick up coincided with this, thankfully. It took time out of my work schedule to get this resolved, but the lady I spoke to was great and I did get my battery about a week or so later, which I did appreciate. Customer service needs better access esp since you have to have the physical batteries and charger to get this resolved, which you may not be able to do while working. Maybe they can't find people to work as that seems to be an issue everywhere. The weed eater works fine. Updated from one star to three based on resolving issues and a dead battery upon arrival, rather than the actual equipment working.

Edged entire corner lot with a sidewalk on one charge of the batteries.
Style: 2 x 2.0Ah
Excellent. A bit heavier than my echo gas weed trimmer for reference. Fair balance but it is a bit of a workout. The good thing is I can edge a 10k sq ft corner lot in about 1/3 the time. On the corner, I have both sides of the sidewalk plus the curb side to do. I've owned gas edgers before also. This comes in comparable to the price I paid for one of those 20 years ago so I would also say a good if not very good value for the buck. It was not an initial edging but 1st maintenance for the year and rather overgrown. Didn't even use one full charge on the edger.

Amazing!!! Works great
Size: 9 inches
Works really well. Cit through my Saint Augustine grass like a breeze and it is super thick. Very happy with purchase. Battery has good life, charged it for a full 24hrs before use and it last a long time. They send 2 blades and the battery with charger which is a huge plus because everything else I looked at you had to purchase those separately and it was just as much as the edger. This is a great deal and worth the money. Highly recommend 👌
