Customer Reviews

Shelby Foote makes it worth it!

As a regular reader of "Colonel" Fred Brown in the Knoxville (TN) News-Sentinel, I welcomed the prospects of this new book. It exceeds expectations! This team of writers accomplished the "impossible" by arranging to interview author Shelby Foote personally and that chapter alone is worth the price of the book--then there are Welty and other bonus chapters. Highly recommended!
