Images of America: Holly Springs commemorates the founding and development of northwest Mississippi's quaintest city. Located in Marshall County, Holly Springs was built by pioneering families, some of whose descendants still own land purchased during the Chickasaw Indian Land Cession of 1832. Holly Springs endured Union occupation during the Civil War and a yellow fever epidemic in 1878. Famous homes, including the raised cottage Featherston Place and the grand manor Airliewood, are included in this volume, as is the city's historical Presbyterian church, the outer walls of which bear the scars of Civil War minie balls and shrapnel. Also showcased is Rust College, a historically black institution founded in 1866 that thrives today.
