Designed by Atlanta architect A. Thomas Bradbury and opened in
1968, the mansion has been home to eight first families and houses
a distinguished collection of American art and antiques. Often
called "the people's house," the mansion is always on display,
always serving the public. Memories of the Mansion tells the story
of theGeorgia Governor's Mansion-what preceded it and how it came
to be as well as the stories of the people who have lived and
worked here since its opening in 1968. The authors worked closely
with the former first families (Maddox, Carter, Busbee, Harris,
Miller, Barnes, Perdue, and Deal) to capture behind-the-scenes
anecdotes of what life was like in the state's most public house.
This richly illustrated book not only documents this extraordinary
place and the people who have lived and worked here, but it will
also help ensure the preservation of this historic resource so that
it may continue to serve the state and its people.
