Afro-Americans in Bradley County, 1800–1930

     "Princella and MacArthur Davis have brought 
to the forefront a vivid and much needed pictorial 
cornucopia of Bradley County Black history.  
"Afro-Americans in Bradley County," 1800–1930 
is a first introduction work that spans much of 
the county and breaks new historical ground.

     The Davis’ book is fully indexed and contains 
370 pages of wonderful unpublished photographs.
The authors appear to have found the key to open
the door for other studies in Afro-American history.

     I wholly recommend this book and encourage
all Afro-Americans in Bradley County to use this 
work as an example for compiling other sources
of history from within their community."

MISS MYRTLE'S BOY

Larry Larance grew up in Warren (WHS class of '55-'56) and has written a memoir of those days. Published by Windchimes Press in 1999, it is an interesting look at growing up in Warren in the 1940's and 50's with the "Mayberry R. F. D." sensibility of the times.
