This article focuses on the state Georgia of the U.S.. It is beautiful, high on the crests of the great smoky mountains. Red, white, and black is the soil and it rolls by six great rivers and ten wide cities and a thousand towns, thick-throated, straggling, low, busy and sleepy. It is a land singularly full of lovely things: its van-colored soil, its mighty oaks and pines, its cotton-fields, its fruit, its hills. And yet few speak of the beauty of Georgia. Some tourists wait by the palms of Savannah or try the mild winters of Augusta and there are those who, rushing through the town on its many railroads, glance at Atlanta or attend a convention there.
