Includes: illustrations, index, bibliography. Endpaper map. Notes. From Wikipedia: "Manly Wade Wellman (May 21, 1903 April 5, 1986) was an American writer. After serving as a lieutenant in WW II, in 1951 Wellman moved his family to Pinebluff, North Carolina, population 300, to be closer to the folksy backwoods people he was starting to write about. There he immersed himself in American southern mountain folklore and history, becoming an expert on the Civil War and the historic regions and peoples of the Old South. Wellman's best-known biographical work, Giant in Gray (1949), was based on his namesake, Confederate General Wade Hampton. Wellman wrote and published significant nonfiction works about the Old South, including county histories, throughout the 1950s and would continue to do so through to the 1970s."
