The site gathers quotations about duty, principle, faith, freedom, opportunity, sacrifice, and steadfastness alongside milestones in Georgia’s political course during the Civil War and Reconstruction. It includes Robert E. Lee’s words on true glory in duty done and faithfulness in life’s conflict, Stonewall Jackson’s praise for soldiers, George Washington’s call to join military duty with religion, Thomas Wolfe’s promise of America as each person’s chance to live, work, and become what vision and manhood can make possible, Thomas Jefferson’s defense of freedom of mind and press, Patrick Henry’s declaration for liberty over slavery, and a dying Confederate soldier’s image of men facing night as if standing at the edge of dawn. It also records that Georgia seceded from the Union on January 19, 1861, was admitted to the Confederate States of America on February 8, 1861, and was readmitted to the Union on July 15, 1870.
