Georgia - on My Mind

Personal Essays and Photography by Georgia Lee

By: Georgia Lee

GEORGIA – on my mind defies classification. More than a collection of personal essays and photography, this book is a reflection, confession, and commentary on the bittersweet adventure of life. Georgia Lee’s unique voice is witty and self-deprecating; perceptive and astute. Her stories, illustrated by her poignant photography, combine humor and pathos in equal measure. MEET THE BEATLES!!! speaks to her rabid pre-teen hysteria at The Beatles’ 1965 Atlanta concert that led her mother to administer a post-show sedative. Accompanying photographs include her prized framed ticket with its $5.50 cost of admission. LICE LESSONS transforms every mother’s nightmare – a child’s lice infestation, during her own suicidal depression into a love story of mother-daughter togetherness, illustrated with a de-lousing photo from Atlanta’s Lice Ladies emporium. BIOLOGICAL CLOCK speaks to cultural impositions on women. Georgia Lee’s brave recounting of her reproductive battles is painful, yet compelling. Under a so-called “biological clock,” to have a baby, she endures horrific medical negligence and months of hospitalization that lead to the stillborn delivery of a son, followed by a bitter separation and divorce. In post-traumatic shock, as a working single parent of a four-year-old toddler, the tragedy is redeemed by a miraculous pregnancy and delivery, at 40 years old, of a beautiful, healthy daughter. An unexpected memorial, 20 years later, links a time to mourn and a time to heal. A tale of longing and loss, torment and joy, Biological Clock addresses the painful issues so many women endure, often in silence. Through every story and image, Georgia Lee is unflinchingly honest and authentic. On My Mind is one woman’s journey of joy and pain. Though all paths vary, the journey is universal.

Seventeen Georgia Counties

By: Lelia Thornton Gentry,Georgia Chapters Daughters of the Americ

While the coverage of this work extends to seventeen Georgia counties, fully two-thirds of the book deals with Franklin County. Each chapter begins with a brief description of the county records covered, which, in most cases, are among the oldest extant and date from the mid-eighteenth to the early nineteenth century. By and large, the material for the other sixteen counties--Baldwin, Bullock, Clarke, Jackson, Jasper, Jefferson, Jones, Laurens, Lincoln, Madison, Morgan, Pulaski, Putnam, Tatnall, Telfair, and the city of Augusta--consists of marriage records naming the bride and groom, and name indexes to wills and estates.

White Woman in a Red Man’s World

Highlights of a Teacher’s Life

By: Georgia Lucas

A White Woman in a Red Man's World is a must read for all new teachers and for all teachers who plan to teach on an Indian reservation. Georgia Lucas is a master teacher who shares her actual classroom experiences along with enlightening glimpses into the everyday lives of her Indian students. This teacher's memoir spans over 20 years of living, combining anecdotes of her school, home, and social life, spiced with mysterious happenings on the Indian reservations. Upon reading this book, teachers everywhere will come to realize that they, too, have a story to tell. And students will learn to appreciate their teachers a little more as they realize what trials and struggles, as well as joy and satisfaction, are derived from teaching. ~ Arrow Point Lessoneers Mrs. Lucas was a very innovative teacher. She kept us guessing how the next lesson would be presented, and we were usually pleasantly surprised. The lessons were always stimulating. She absolutely refused to allow our minds to wander. We were not allowed to accept defeat. After 17 years, I can still hear her voice urging me to realize my full potential and to work toward my goals. Thank you, Mrs. Lucas. ~ Benetta
