   Book Review

From Book News, Inc.
Clark's evocative memoir describes growing up a minister's son in a small town in Georgia in the 1930s and 1940s--a seemingly magical time when Burma-Shave signs lined the old highways and young boys shot marbles, played soldiers, and swam in shaded streams before WWII intruded and "progress" erased such pastimes forever. B&w photographs. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.




Remembering Forward

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Harold Clarke does more than remind the reader of a bygone age; he takes us back in time with him to the rural South between the World Wars. Whether exploring themes of community or the hydra of the Ku Klux Klan, whether telling of a favorite fishing spot on the Ogeechee River or of the death of a childhood friend, Clarke is a master storyteller whose stories never fail to invoke the complexity and the richness of life itself.
