Best Little Stories from Virginia

Virginians and their state have had a profound impact on the making of America. I purchased this book for my daughter because the authors were coming to town for a signing. They are great story-weavers. Having read some of their other titles, I know she will enjoy this one.

C. Brian Kelly and Ingrid Smyer have put together yet another volume in their short story collections series. This one is entitled,"Best Little Stories from Virginia." It's number seven in a series that covers such diverse topics as World War II, the White House, and the Wild West. Kelly and Smyer wrote this book in anticipation of the 400th anniversary of the founding of Jamestown, Virginia. Published by Nashville based Cumberland House Publishing these books are a welcome addition to any library. I found this volume to be quite interesting. There is something about reading about the early days of our country that fascinates me personally. I urge all "History Buffs" that love "personal eyewitness history" to add this one to your book collection. The story about old "Route 5" towards the end of the volume makes for interesting reading too.
