Octavo, white cloth & blue boards (hardcover), map illus. endpapers, x + 337 pp. Near-Fine, with light foxing; in a Fine (As New), mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: In the 1970s, along the subtropical coast of Georgia, two old and isolated communities -- one white, one black -- began to eye each other by the light of strange new political realities. Years after the struggle for civil equality between the races transformed much of the rest of the South, news of the outside world filtered into McIntosh County, and the resultant mass meetings, boycotts, and lawsuits altered the old country customs forever. Praying for Sheetrock is the story of the political awakening of a tiny black community, and of the downfall of a flamboyant renegade sheriff and his courthouse gang. It is also the story of his undoing, many years later. Brilliantly melding the rich and varied voices of the people of McIntosh County into a small-town saga, Melissa Fay Greene lets the people tell their outrageous, funny, eloquent, and touching stories -- and makes our hearts stop with their importance. Deacon Henry Curry, the patriarch of the black community, recalls the assassination of President McKinley. Sheriff Poppell separates tens of thousands of Yankee tourists from their money. Thurnell Alston becomes the first freely elected black county commissioner since Reconstruction. And Fanny Palmer, a retired shrimp worker living in an ancient sharecropper shack, prays to the Lord for sheetrock, and sheetrock is delivered.

Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. Advance Reading Copy. This is the ADVANCE READING COPY, an early, highly collectible state of the book. It is in collector's condition--bright, fresh and clean. As the first black commissioner of McIntosh County, Ga., retired boilermaker Thurnell Alston brought the civil rights struggle to a coastal backwater in the 1970s. He initiated voting rights lawsuits, fought drugs and introduced medical clinics, plumbing and running water to "a forgotten county needy in every way." A threat to corrupt Sheriff Tom Popell, who ruled the county as his fiefdom, Alston challenged the "good old boy" patronage system. But the irascible commissioner became increasingly distanced from his constituency and, after his youngest son's tragic death in 1983, he neglected his wife and children in escapist pursuits. The target of a government sting operation, he was convicted of drug conspiracy charges in 1988 and sentenced to six and a half years in federal prison camp, where he remains. By turns inspiring and sad, his story is told with dramatic skill by Atlanta journalist Greene.
