Growing Up South of the Mason-Dixon Line

Fiction

“Writing with an economy of words that weave together memories of a southern upbringing, the authors . . . take us on a journey from the halls of grammar school through a summer adventure, later cruising the streets of Nashville, and finally to an early teaching stint influenced by a love that only a grandmother can reflect. These life-affirming stories are as honest as they are heartwarming.”
