Bounded on the north by the Little Satilla River from neighboring Glynn County and on the east by the Atlantic Ocean, Camden County's southern boundary at the St. Marys River separates Georgia from Florida. Dating from a 1766 land grant, port of St. Marys and Camden County have faced a challenging past, present, and future. Camden's growth and development have been driven by businessmen, adventurers and opportunists, determined wild swamp Crackers, and hardy, self-reliant, God-fearing men and women.

Accompanied by Jonathan Bryan, a planter with an insatiable appetite for virgin tracts of land, Georgia's third and last Royal Governor James Wright visited Buttermilk Bluff in June 1767 and envisioned a city. St. Marys was born, and its street names reflect the surnames of the 20 founding fathers. While the county seat was removed from a quaint St. Marys on more than one occasion, today, the garden spot of Woodbine serves as the seat of county government. Formerly the rice plantation of J.K. Bedell, this small city shares a symbiotic relationship with port of St. Marys and the City of Royal Treatment at Kingsland. The history of the county, with its three main towns as well as the outlying, rural areas, unfolds in striking photographs from days gone by. Preserved within the pages of this treasured volume, images reveal Camden and its people in times of tragedy and triumph.

About the Author
Barefoot, Patricia: - Coastal Georgia native Patricia Barefoot's first title in the Images of America series, Brunswick: The City by the Sea, received wide popular support. She holds a lifelong curiosity for Camden's awesome swamplands, the Old Post Road, and the region's flora and fauna as described by Quaker naturalist Will Bartram. Barefoot's deep, abiding interest in the richness of coastal history shines forth in her exploration and celebration of Camden's proud heritage.
