In the Shadow of Cotton: Revisited: Memories from a Mill Village Kid Evans, John (Loughborough University UK)

This revised memoir refreshes our culture of remembrance with humor and tears through the eyes of a child coming of age among the tide of baby boomers in the Deep South in a cotton mill village in the 1950s and 1960s. In the Shadow of Cotton: Revisited is a thoroughly engaging, heartwarming, and often funny story of play, daily life, and most important love and respect and loyalty in a mill village community. The work includes the life and times of the period and a brief history of cotton, the cotton mills, and its villages.
