Synopsis:
Emory Jones has given us the incredible gift of seeing significant parts of Georgia s rich history through the eyes of her much-loved son, Ludlow Porch. We get to attend these events firsthand through vivid descriptions. Zipping through Georgia...lets you experience history as it happens. You ll witness the capture of Jefferson Davis, The Great Locomotive Chase, the coming of kudzu and much more. In this fun-to-read novel, the late Southern humorist, Ludlow Porch, takes a friend, his pet parrot, and a rutabaga-loving goat for a ride on his new time machine. Aiming for the Georgia coast in 1733, they accidentally turn up in several other historical settings before making it to the Savannah River nearly 300 years ago. This remarkable book lets you laugh out loud and learn at the same time, because the history is as real as the humor. Porch s presence is felt on every page. Who else but Ludlow would know that a time machine is made from two Jon boats and guided by something called a Fleebish-7? Or that Robert E. Lee s horse, Traveller, was originally named Jeff David? Ludlow is in Heaven now, but he and and his step-brother, Lewis Grizzard are still laughing over this one. Everyone who loves Georgia history should read this book. Everyone who loved Ludlow Porch should read it twice.
