American County Histories

County histories—publications that document and commemorate a specific region—are essential in studying American history. This collection includes more than 2,700 large volumes that have been manually rekeyed. It provides vivid portraits of people, places, and events—not just national figures, but local figures, demographics, social, economic, and cultural transformations.
