Malvern (Images of America) (Images of America (Arcadia Publishing))

Hot Spring County was established in 1829, and its county seat, Malvern, was laid out as a station on the Cairo and Fulton Railroad in 1873. A remarkable diversity of agricultural, timber, and mineral products spurred the county's growth over the decades, especially the abundant clay deposits that made Malvern the "Brick Capitol of the World."
