Dawn,

I don't know if you are familiar with my book The Secret of War but it is based on oral history. I have added fiction in places to fill in the historical blanks. It is probably now the best known of oral histories in Henderson County. If you'd like a copy drop me a line.

Thanks,
Terrell Garren

Dawn,
I don't know what your are looking for but I am past 60. Im fact way past . On my next birthday in April I will be 88.
I grew up in the mountains of western North Carolina. "Canton". I have wrote 3 books since retirement. Two are published and the third one is at the publisher now.
I have started a fourth book. All my books are about hapenings in those mountains where I lived untill WW-2. If I can be of help with your project contact me at,
