Description

"These 'homegrown legends,' ... soon took on a life of their own and had by 1894 already begun to be taken seriously by occasional authors in earnest publications such as the Christian Advocate. The last version was privately published in 1902 as a little booklet that Head distributed among club members and friends. To the later version he added a few additional historical 'facts' and photographs of 'General Oglethorpe' and other distinguished figures- in reality, photographs of Chicago men who were members of both the Jekyll Island Club and the Chicago Literary Club"--cf. Page ix, McCash, June Hall. Jekyll Island’s early years (Athens : University of Georgia Press, 2005).
