The Chattahoochee River has dramatically shaped the heritage of the lower Chattahoochee Valley of east and southeast Alabama and west and southwest Georgia. As the region�s dominant geographic feature; the Chattahoochee has served residents of the area as an engine for commerce and as an important transportation route for centuries. It has also been a natural and recreational resource; as well as an inspiration for creativity. From the stream�s role as one of the South�s busiest trade routes to the dynamic array of water-powered industry it made possible; the river has been at the very center of the forces that have shaped the unique character of the area. A vital part of the community�s past; present; and future; it binds the Chattahoochee Valley together as a distinctive region. Through a variety of images; including historic photographs; postcards; and artwork; this book illustrates the importance of the Chattahoochee River to the region it has helped sustain.
