This book is a second edition and has been enhanced, edited, and material, pictures, and genealogy added. It is the same great story about an appalachian family relying on God to help them throught the rough times in the 19th century. The book is written in historic-fiction fashion where I keep the dates, names, places, and events correct but I let the folks talk, cry, laugh and even be mad. If they get on a wagon to go places I get on with them. The story deals with the years of 1836 to 1900 and is centered on southwest Virginia, but about 10 chapters cover Crockett's trip to Greenup County, KY. and back to VA. It also covers him as he fights off the Yankees while serving in the 29th Virginia Infantry. It tells about his capture and time in POW camp at Point Lookout, MD
One of the best books I have read. Hoping Dahnmon writes another book soon. His writings are so interesting and keeps you wondering what the next chapter will bring.. I give this book a 5 star rating. Anyone who enjoys reliving past history will love reading this book "LEGACY" The Days of David Crockett Whitt. There are hard times and good times for this family but they never gave up hope because of their faith and trust in God to lead them to their destination, they kept going allowing Him to lead them all the way. A truly inspirational book by a great man and author.. Colonel Charles Dahnmon Whitt. I am anxiously awaiting another book written by you. Thanks for writing this one. I know it took years of research and hard work on your part, but you with God's help did a tremendous job.
