Reviews
"The letters collected here shed light on a number of interconnected families of Middle Tennessee, but they also provide a rare first-hand account of the final days of John Armfield, one of the most notorious domestic slave traders in American history. They are of great value to both genealogists and historians alike, who will be grateful to Martin for having carefully compiled and annotated them here." Joshua D. Rothman--Professor and Chair, History Dept., University of Alabama. Author of several books, including Flush Times and Fever Dreams: A Story of Capitalism and Slavery in the Age of Jackson, University of Georgia Press, 2012. "Using the letters, Martin has written a charming tribute to two families and the heritage they perpetuated. Along the way, the book becomes a story rich in the history of a time and place and does not skimp on the rough spots. The magnificent, annotated collection of photographs fleshes out the story of additional generations. The Preface to 'Love's Young Dream' addresses the much-neglected problem of writing about families ensconced in a culture dominated by slavery and Jim Crow." Judith Hillman Paterson--Instructor 20 years, Philip Merrill College of Journalism. Author of several books, including Sweet Mystery: A Book of Remembering, University of Alabama Press, 2001. "Readers will see the Franklin family as the real, complicated people they were--vital and passionate, deeply caring and yet, clearly, people of their times. The letters are a treat, but the usefulness to historians and others comes from Martin's masterful command of the context. He does a great job of making sure that even the passing references in the letters are clear to readers. This is a must-have for anybody interested in Middle Tennessee history." Betsy Phillips--Writer/contributor, The Washington Post and Nashville Scene. Author of A City of Ghosts, Createspace Independent Publishing, 2010. "Martin lays an historical and genealogical foundation leading to a collection of romantic letters from his great-great-grandfather, Dr. Edward Noel Franklin, to his future bride, Nannie Hillman. Despite a great Civil War during their formative years, their families provided for them quality educations, enabling them to lead fulfilling lives. Here is recorded a genteel love story of the late nineteenth century revealing a way of life in Victorian Tennessee." Kenneth Calvin Thomson, Jr.--Historian of Sumner County. Author (with Dee Gee Lester) of Around Gallatin and Sumner County, Volumes 1 and 2, "Images of America" series, Arcadia Publishing, 1996.
