In her inimitable storytelling style, Mrs. Windham takes readers on
a tour of the history, people, and places of the ""heart of
Dixie."" First published in 1975 and long out of print, Alabama:
One Big Front Porch is now reissued in a handsome new edition.
Alabama, they say, is like one big front porch where folks gather
on summer nights to tell tales and to talk family. Everybody, they
say, is kin to everybody else-or knows somebody who is. It's a
sprawling porch, stretching from the Tennessee River valley to the
sandy Gulf beaches with its sides sometimes slipping over into
Mississippi and Georgia. The tale-tellers don't all look alike and
they don't all talk alike, but the stories they tell are all alike
in their unmistakable Southern blend of exaggeration, humor,
pathos, folklore, and romanticism. Family history is woven into the
stories. And pride. And humor. Always humor.
