| General note | Charlie and the Fightin' Mule: Plus More Down-Home Stories is a lively collection of tales set in the fertile farm country and tobacco towns of eastern North Carolina. Stories of farmers, working folks, country teenagers, rascals, mules, tent preachers and pink 1956 Ford convertibles. For days after you've read the book, the stories, and the characters who people them, drift into your mind with the subtleness of a twilight breeze stirring the tops of knee-high corn, and - like a whiff of your mama's cooking - transport you down-home. -- Back Cover. |
