Book Synopsis
James Edward Oglethorpe (1696-1785) is generally credited with being the founder of Georgia and a dominant force among the Trustees overseeing the colony. This book talks about many key figures in the history of settlement. It provides information about their public actions; and little to assess individual motives, abilities, and personality.

Trade Review
"The editors of this volume believe that the essays will answer some of the questions that continually come to the surface when Oglethorpe's name is mentioned. These essays leave impressions of Oglethorpe, and they supply a sharper perspective as the volume's title declares. Every essay adds some dimension to the man." - William and Mary Quarterly"
