Jane Cary’s vivid and often humorous memories of her time at Tuscawilla […] are a treasure. […] This book will forever be a resource for those interested in local history, and the fact that these stories are now preserved make the book a treasure to read and share with others. Whether you are a long-time resident, a native, or new to the Greenbrier Valley it is truly a gem, and a wonderful account of days gone by.
