From the author of A Promise on Brushy Creek, the family memoir To All the World weaves together personal recollections, historical events, and Southern family traditions. It unfolds around the family life and collective experiences of a Mississippi family during war, holidays, and everyday life. It begins with an air of deep concern as F.C. and Frances Price await news of their missing son who is serving in the Korean War. The story then reflects on the couple's personal memories, including their marriage in Natchez, Mississippi. The narrative also shares humorous and poignant accounts of the Price children, such as their experience with a pretend "Tom Thumb wedding," childhood games, and a love of bedtime storytelling. One particularly vivid tale traces an awe-inspiring family connection to Margaret "Peggy" Daviess Hess. Peggy, who according to family lore was once rescued by George Washington, later survived harrowing encounters with Native Americans on the Kentucky frontier. She is honored today as one of the first women to plead a case in U.S. courts. Enjoy this portrait of memories and Southern life that honors the small and profound joys and sorrows that helped define a family's history and identity.
