Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Much more than a simple portrait of a pioneer family, this chronicle is actually a history of Bristol from a different perspective. It would be virtually impossible to write a complete history of this city without including a record of the pioneer King family. Likewise, it would be very difficult to write of this family and not become involved in general Bristol history.


About the Author

V. N. "Bud" Phillips in a recognized authority on local Bristol-area history who has taught local history in the public and private schools of Bristol, Tennessee.

5.0 out of 5 stars The story of a very powerful family, September 7, 2008
By Kimberlee J. Yocum (Bedford KY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The Book of Kings is a must read if you're from Bristol. VN "Bud" Phillips brings the King family to life in such a way that I find myself thinking about different situations many months after reading the book. Such as when Rev. King would take the slave children up on the hill to pick strawberries on a summer afternoon or the grief that was felt throughout the whole family when one on the slave children accidentally drown. I almost felt I was on the banks of Beaver Creek with them. I'll read this book again and again.
