Picture of Harry M. Caudill author of the groundbreaking book, Night Comes to the Cumberlands, which is credited as kick starting the War on Poverty in America.
We‘re both actually from the same small town and he‘s been a figure who has always loomed large in my imagination.

These sort of books confirm that inscriptions, for all the weight they carry, are indeed a moment in time.
