Review Quotes:
"Reading Cotton-Patch Schoolhouse took me back to my south Alabama childood--and made me wish I had been one of "Miss Susie's" pupils. --Kathryn Tucker Windham
"A marvelous account of poverty and endurance during the late 1920s. Indeed it is the most compelling account I have read of a world now largely gone." --Wayne Flynt, Auburn University
