Sobre IBD

This book is a compilation of the author’s column, All Things Southern, which runs in several Southern newspapers. This book is the third installment in the Shadows and Dust series and the author’s fourth book. It contains more than 1000 names of local soldiers, settlers, farmers, ministers and newspaper articles relating to early history and genealogy in the South West Alabama/Northwest Florida region. The book contains the Confederate census for Escambia and Monroe County Alabama for 1906 and draws upon newspaper reports from the last 150 years of regional history, as well as interviews, first hand accounts and numerous visits to historic sites and places across the area. In the Falco, Alabama section, the author visits a long lost Alabama ghost town in Covington County Alabama where old brick buildings dot the piney woods and the outlines of old streets fill the imagination.
