Evoking the sweet, heavy scent of summer with beautiful photographs and charming anecdotes, this book is a well-crafted history of summertime in Virginia that invites all to reminisce. Whether you are a newcomer to the area or a longtime resident, Summer on the Southside will appeal to everyone who has ever spent a warm summer evening sitting on the porch, listening to the frogs,
and watching the fireflies. From the first chapter, aBring Forth the Flowers, a to the last, aSchool Bells and Fall Leaves, a readers will
enjoy this meandering journey down memory lane.
