Item description from seller

Paperback. A raw, firsthand account of feuds, fiddling, moonshining, and survival in a small Alabama town, told by its most colorful chronicler and shaped through careful historical insight.The Ballad of Fiddling Tom Freeman is a riveting portrait of a forgotten America, drawn from the handwritten memoirs of a bootlegger, fiddler, and chronicler of life in Bug Tussle, Alabama, in the first half of the twentieth century. Today, rural voices are often drowned out by polished narratives, but this book resurrects the unfiltered perspective of a man who lived throughand candidly documentedthe chaos and violence in his home place as he shared stories of the large close-knit families who lived there.Freeman's storytelling is as wild and tangled as the lives he describes, and author Joyce H. Cauthen, with the assistance of historical researcher Robin Sterling, brings clarity and context to his tales without sanding down their rough edges. The result is a vivid, bottom-up history of a place where lawlessness and loyalty often walked hand in hand.The Ballad of Fiddling Tom Freeman stands out as a testament to the power of personal narrative. Not just a story about one man, it's a window into a community shaped by hardship, music, and survival, told in a voice that refuses to be forgotten. This book is essential reading for historians, folklorists, musicians, and anyone drawn to the untamed stories of America's backroads and backwoods. The Ballad of Fiddling Tom Freeman is a vivid, firsthand account of life in Bug Tussle, Alabama, drawn from the eccentric manuscript of a fiddler and bootlegger. Blending folklore, crime, and community history, it offers a rare bottom-up view of Southern life from the late 1800s to the mid-1900s. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
