Bayor, Ronald H.

Published as part of the centennial celebration of the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1985, Engineering the New South is the first comprehensive history of Georgia Tech. These records document the planning, research, and writing of the seminal volume by six faculty members of the Department of History, Technology, and Society.

The Ronald H. Bayor Papers contain comprehensive material used to write Bayor’s book, Race and the Shaping of Twentieth-Century Atlanta. Written research notes, oral history interviews and transcripts, and general research material form this dynamic collection that captures the turbulent era of social change in Atlanta.
