HPN Books has partnered with the Georgia Manufacturing Alliance to publish the first ever historical presentation of MANUFACTURING SUCCESS IN GEORGIA: An Illustrated History. For over 30 years, HPN Books has produced limited edition, photography-rich coffee table books that focus on promoting the unique heritage and history of hundreds of communities, cities, regions and industry groups across the United States.

MANUFACTURING SUCCESS IN GEORGIA: An Illustrated History will be an account of the rich history of Georgia’s manufacturing community packaged in a professionally-produced, large-format, heavily illustrated work co-authored by Jason Moss, CEO of the Georgia Manufacturing Alliance, along with Charlie Post, President of TSI Solutions.

“As the founder and CEO of the Georgia Manufacturing Alliance, I am in daily contact with manufacturing leaders throughout Georgia,” said Moss. “With over 10,000 manufacturing facilities in our state, there is a powerful story behind how we became the Southeast’s economic hub.”

MANUFACTURING SUCCESS IN GEORGIA: An Illustrated History will focus on the characters and events that have shaped manufacturing in Georgia and created both jobs and prosperity for the Peach State. It will tell about making products in Georgia, from the earliest days of utilizing Georgia cotton for textile production, to today’s booming carpet industry, to the global impact of leading companies like Coca-Cola and Gulfstream.

Additionally, this colorful, coffee table-type book will include over 100 period photographs, maps and paintings. It will be a great resource to promote Georgia’s dynamic economy and manufacturing industry. The book will be accessible in libraries and bookstores statewide as well as from online sources such as Amazon and will be available to organizations involved in economic development.

“I am very excited to work on this project and to tell the incredible stories of the people, factories, and processes that make manufacturing great in Georgia,” said Post. “Our state has a fascinating manufacturing history and I am looking forward to bringing these stories to life.”
