Description
The intersection of Peachtree Street and Sweet Auburn mirrors the often separate but mutually dependent relations between whites and blacks in Atlanta. Through hundreds of interviews and five years of painstaking research, Gary Pomerantz, a reporter for the "Atlanta Journal-Constitution", shows how two families, one white, one black, rose to social, economical and political prominence in the capitol of the new South. photos.
