Today Pultizer Prize-winning author Rick Bragg kicks off his national tour for his new book, The Most They Ever Had in his hometown, Jacksonville, Alabama. Rick will always be a hometown favorite and I think it's because he gives a voice to people who never even knew they had anything worth hearing.
If you are not too far from Jacksonville, Alabama, the book signing is tonight (Oct. 7) at 7 p.m. at the Leone Cole Auditorium, Jacksonville State University. Admission is Free. Copies of The Most They Ever Had will be available for the very first time. MacAdam/Cage published the title and cost per book is $23.
Rick tells all about the book in this interview with Lisa Davis, features editor for The Anniston Star, Anniston, Alabama. The old photos of Jacksonville are also worth a gander too. Just follow the link at the bottom of the story.
Theresa Shadrix is managing editor of Longleaf Style magazine.

If there is an author I can trust in regards to excellent literature it's Rick Bragg, he really impresses me a lot whenever he releases a new master piece.
Rick Bragg is the best storyteller!!! "shoutin" was my favorite but "the most they ever had" makes you feel the dust in your lungs and grit on your hands. Easy and very interesting read
