This 700

Twenty-one chapters prepared by the Garland County Historical Society cover
Garland County’s land, settlement, Civil War era, growth, cultural pursuits,
transportation, schools, churches, cemeteries, businesses, government, economy,
historic sites, civic groups, recreation, health care, townships and
communities, and more. From Memdag to Lonsdale, from the Dark Corner to the
National Park, from Native Americans mining novaculite to a future U.S.
President playing in the HSHS Trojan Band, this book offers the only
comprehensive picture of our county ever published.
Hundreds

fascinating portraits of the people who have made Garland County their home.
