Reviews

[Jill · Rating 2 out of 5]

The true stories of people in the Carolinas, especially North Carolina, tell of life in the 1950s - 1970s. The characters are usually elderly and the tone of the book is gloomy. "A way of life is ending and the interesting people are dying," seems to be this book's message.
