In the Shadow of Cotton

This revised memoir refreshes out culture of remembrance with humor and tears through the eyes of a child coming of age among the tide of baby boomers in the Deep South in a cotton mill village in the 1950s and 1960s. In the Shadow of Cotton: Revisited is a thoroughly engaging, heartwarming, and often funny story of play, daily life, and most important, love and respect and loyalty in a mill village community. The work includes the life and times of the period, and a brief history of cotton, the cotton mills, and its villages.
