Marietta is one of the largest and most historic cities in
northwest Georgia. Some of that history has been preserved, but
much of it, unfortunately, has been lost to "progress," as the
photographs in Then and Now: Marietta Revisited attest.
The Lockheed Plant in Marietta has been building many of the
world's most legendary aircraft for the past 60 years--and that
doesn't even count its service building B-29 bombers for the Bell
Aircraft Company during World War II. Lockheed's six decades have
seen the plant build jet bombers, like the B-47 Stratojet; the
world's most dominant fighter jet (the F-22 Raptor); and the most
vaunted cargo planes (C-130 Hercules, C-141 StarLifter, and C-5
Galaxy). In Images of America: The Lockheed Plant, readers will
learn about those planes, the people who designed and assembled
them, and the plant in which they were built. The striking images
in this book were shared by Lockheed Martin and the Marietta Daily
Journal and depict the plant from its construction through today.
