Mrs. Windham does a wonderful job of giving us a look back at a fading rural lifestyle and a few of the people she has encountered.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kathryn Tucker Windham - a treasure, January 14, 2012

L. Johnson "book explorer" (Elkmont, AL United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Encounters (Hardcover)

Kathryn Tucker Windham was a photographer before she was a storyteller. I love this book. It's a slice of history with her photographs accompanied by anecdotes. I must admit that I heard her tell the stories in person as the pictures were displayed. She was a multi-talented lady and a great treasure.

1.0 out of 5 stars Pretentious Rubbish, July 3, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Encounters (Paperback)

This book is a silly and self-congratulatory celebration of mediocrity. Ms. Windham had one book in her, and from there it's been the bottom of the barrel, the backside of nowhere.
