Silas Stepp's letters home from Confederate battlegrounds; Gran'dad Owenby's stories of logging and life in his log cabin; anecdotes from blind, old Elzie Floyd and from Clem the moonshiner; tales of granny-women and the old-time \"yarb\" doctors: these are just some of the stories that bring the history of this unique county to life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/06\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781596290129\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.24w x 0.38d","brand":"Louise Howe Bailey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43568761634997,"sku":"9781596290129","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_4765ad68-d21b-4299-9d86-1fb2249c90cc.jpg?v=1706630180","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/remembering-henderson-county-a-legacy-of-lore-9781596290129","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
