The barns beckoned travelers, and they came, over and over again. En route, spotting the barns became as enjoyable--and memorable--as the Rock City garden itself. By the 1960s, more than nine hundred scripted barns stood throughout the South, originally hand-painted by Clark Byers. Only forty Rock City barns remain, and many have gone through a restoration that's beautifully captured here. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAuthor Judith Garrison takes readers on a tour of this true slice of Americana.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/03\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467157537\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176","brand":"Judith Hill Garrison","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52239206973621,"sku":"9781467157537","price":21.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_6843952f-7d30-4591-9ce6-915828d0fe11.jpg?v=1770917247","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/see-rock-city-barns-9781467157537","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
