The courthouses of Georgia's 159 counties hold the keys to the
history of individual families and entire communities alike. From
their primary role as the temples of justice for our court system
to their better-known function as the official repository of public
records for significant life events, these buildings anchor many of
Georgia's town squares.
In "Courthouses of Georgia," internationally recognized
photographer Greg Newington captures the prominence and character
of these great structures. His images pay tribute to the
community's investment in preserving historic courthouses for
future generations and celebrate new facilities designed to
accommodate expanded county programs and services, keeping pace
with the state's tremendous growth.
"Courthouses of Georgia" commemorates the centennial anniversary of
Association County Commissioners of Georgia (ACCG), Georgia's
county government association. In his introduction to this lavishly
illustrated book, former Georgia House of Representatives majority
leader Larry Walker shares memories of county courthouses by
legislators, authors, judges, and other notable state figures, and
historian George Justice highlights the proud civic and
architectural heritage of each structure to provide additional
context. Organized by the nine travel regions of Georgia, the book
offers the perfect starting point for touring any of Georgia's
counties and instills an appreciation for historic
preservation.
Jen is married to Fred and has three children she doesn't really
like; she works from inside a cupboard with a girl with orange hair
and a rather rotund lady who clacks when she eats. Her mother has
fallen in love with an Alan Carr look-alike and she has a mother in
law who likes to move her furniture whenever she gets the chance.
Jen likes to kid herself that she is thinner than Blanche but knows
she will never be as attractive as Eileen. Jen, Eileen and Blanche
spend a lot of time together. They have known each other for that
long that they can be honest to the point of being rude without
falling out. They have lots of laughs - usually at other peoples'
expense. Blanche is addicted to cleaning. She got drunk and Jen and
Eileen gave her a Brazilian wax. She likes to think she has smaller
bingo-wings than Jen. Her husband has twins she knows nothing
about. Eileen is gorgeous, works in a chemist and has a wonderful
husband. She also has problems with her breasts and with her bowel
movements. Her mother in law used her vibrator whilst caring for
the school pet. Jen will share with you how she avoids sex with
Fred and how she laughs when their cat has a pee in his shoes. She
will tell you all about Betty and her "Sad Club" and how her
lesbian boss asks her all sorts of weird and wonderful questions
about her sex life. It has a fast pace, it's full of cheeky fun and
sexual innuendos and there are tears shed throughout, some in
laughter, some sadly not.
