Oatland Island: Photographs and History

Oatland Island, located five miles east of Savannah, Georgia, has a unique history. Although it is an education center today, the walls once housed retired railroad conductors, patients, scientists, inventors, and teachers. This book showcases various photographs of the Oatland Island facilities, and documents the rich history and stories of its evolution from a retirement community for the Order of Railway Conductors, to a United States Public Heath Service research hospital, to the original location of the Centers for Disease Control, and to the Oatland Island Wildlife Center of Savannah, Georgia.
