This 1957 first edition textbook offers a comprehensive and vivid account of Alabama’s past. Authored by noted historian Charles Grayson Summersell and art-directed by Richard Brough, it walks students through the state’s Native American history, colonial development, territorial days, Civil War legacy, and 20th-century growth. Richly illustrated with maps and vintage artwork, it includes primary source excerpts and the Alabama Constitution. Vintage student notes tucked inside.

Fair to good condition:

• Cover: marks/fading and wear at edges and corners (bumped), fraying on top edge. Name written on front cover
• Spine: marks/fading and wear at ends
• Pages: wear typical for vintage school book with some writing/underlining, age marks, folded corners and small tears. When flipping through pages, most are appear clean
• Edges: age marks/writing (name) and darkening
