Historic Grant Park Author Event
Meet Jennifer Goad Cuthbertson & Philip M. Cuthbertson, authors of the long-awaited Historic Grant Park, the latest in the Images of America series by Arcadia Press! Join Bound to be Read Books as the authors share some of the history and stories surrounding Atlanta's oldest park and largest historic district. Historic Grant Park showcases images and relics from the collections of organizations such as the Atlanta Preservation Center, the Atlanta History Center, the State of Georgia, and Georgia State University. These collections, along with those of past and present neighborhood residents and local churches, provide a comprehensive overview of Grant Park as it has never before been seen.
Since the early 1990s, authors Jennifer Goad Cuthbertson and Philip M. Cuthbertson have lived in Grant Park and have worked with a variety of organizations to preserve the integrity of the neighborhood as well as the park. Proceeds from the sale of the book benefit the restoration of the Grant Mansion.
