No one brought history to life quite like Joe Darlington. From 1930 to the 1990s he was the featured speaker at community events and spoke to tens of thousands of people about his beloved Perry County. In the 1970s and 1980s he published a weekly newspaper column called “According to Joe.” This book is a collection of his most interesting and popular stories.
This book was informative and I appreciated the final section of notable Perry Countians. I did find a lot of the information to be repeated from the first volume and similar repeated several times throughout the second volume.
