Does your Grandmother dip snuff in secret? Has the Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan ever run your long johns up the flagpole? Has your mother ever starved the family to death while waiting for moochy relatives to leave at suppertime? Have you suspected that your family cat had a desire to eat you? Has a high school custodian ever held a 12-gage shotgun on you? Does your Grampa have a secret cache of whisky in the barn? If you can answer "Yes" to any of these questions, and maybe even if you can't, Grandma Dipped Snuff is a must-read book for you. Taken from a weekly column in a small-town newspaper, these essays are as current as today, but reflect the sense of a time gone by.

Discover the secret to making mud pies when water is short and uncover the significance of finding a button in your piece of birthday cake. Leave the 21st century behind and return with Virble to the small towns of Cedar Creek and Pioneer and Collegeville. Virble Kathleen Mabry Yeadon lives with her husband in San Jose, California. She is mother of three and grandmother of nine young adults. She started life in Oklahoma as Virble, the seventh of eight children of which five survived. She remained the "baby of the family" when a younger sister died soon after birth. As an adult, Kathy desired to memorialize her childhood for her kids and grandchildren, but as a divorced and working mother for eighteen years, she always ran out of time. When she retired, she registered for an adult writing class. The book you are looking at, started out as a collection of writing assignments, each a vignette covering a cherished childhood memory as seen through the eyes of little Virble or young Kathy. Those short stories delighted other class members and the instructor insisted that she write until a book was in hand.

“Crabapple Blossoms” draws you into the warm rhythms of Georgia farm life as the Depression came and went. Grace Smith and Sue Hunter skillfully capture the sounds and sights of tobacco cultivation and harvest, games children played using only their imaginations, humorous interactions with family and friends, country church services and funerals for pets. The sisters’ account of a time at Berry College illustrates the unique nature of the school where sewing and tractor driving could be part of earning tuition—of a place where young people from farm families could learn skills and earn degrees that would open a new world to them. The stories of teaching school vividly present the problems in the days of few standards, a front row seat for what racial integration meant and some frank—and sometimes sardonic—observations of the often illogical curriculum reforms that will be familiar to anyone who taught or sat in a classroom during the last half century. “In ‘Crabapple Blossoms,’ Grace Smith and Sue Hunter bring the world of girlhood days on a Georgia tobacco farm, college days at Berry and teaching careers to life. With humor, honesty and style, they tell a unique story—one that captures the changing South in context of school, church and family.” --W. Winston Skinner, Newnan, Ga. Writer and historian

Painter, fisherman, pseudo-hermaphrodite—Forrest Bess lived his life in obscurity at an isolated bait camp off the east coast of Texas. From 1949 through 1967, Bess showed at the Betty Parsons Gallery in New York City, alongside superstar artists such as Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko. Rediscovered after his death in 1977, Bess's small visionary paintings are now prized by museums and collectors for their primal beauty, and can fetch over $200,000 apiece. Bess's treasured canvases were only part of a grander theory—based on alchemy, Jungian philosophy, and aboriginal rituals—that proposed that hermaphrodism was the key to immortality. As an artist, Bess could never equivocate, and in 1960 he underwent an operation to become a pseudo-hermaphrodite. For the first time ever in print, Forrest Bess: Key to the Riddle combines the beauty of Bess's art with the drama and tragedy of his personal life. Using Bess's own hauntingly sincere words (in letters to Betty Parsons, Meyer Schapiro, and others) the book traces the life and logic of this forgotten artist and explains how a love of beauty and a desire for wholeness lead Bess to self-surgery and, ultimately, a mental hospital. Forrest Bess: Key to the Riddle is a fascinating look at one of America's most notorious cult visionaries—a man who truly believed that art could save his life.
