by Huntsville-Madison County Historical Soc (Author)

For 46 years, the Huntsville Historical Review has chronicled the origins and history of Huntsville and Madison County. Now, as Alabama celebrates its bicentennial, the Huntsville-Madison County Historical Society has assembled a collection of articles from past issues of the Review, spanning Huntsville's history during Alabama's 200 years. This second volume covers the years between Alabama statehood and the Civil War, as Huntsville grows into being the "smart place" it's known as today.
