Pure Anecdotal Goodness,

This review is from: Sullivan's Hollow (Paperback)
This book reviews the history of a place that doesn't even exist to the rest of the world. I happen to live half an hour from the Hollow, and it fits the typical description of the "reputation" of the people that live there today. If you like reading historical writings, I highly recommend this.

Interesting but shallow,
By Couerleroi "Couerleroi" (Mississippi) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sullivan's Hollow (Paperback)
This short book is interesting reading but not a serious history work. Those who live near Sullivan's Hollow have heard the reputation of the place, but if this book is accurate, there is little to the legend.
