What fun it is to meet the sometimes fascinating, sometimes famous, sometimes common, sometimes slightly off center characters of a small town. The words and actions of the unique people as well as the events revealed in these pages may produce unbelief, laughter, amazement, and perhaps even a bit of pain at times, but never boredom. A town, its people and its events should not be forgotten. Our children and grandchildren along with their children should have at least some knowledge of our town's past. They need to know of the events with broad implications as well as those that might be considered insignificant because they all blend together to make a town what it has become. One with no knowledge of Adairsville before exposure to this book or one who has lived in the little North Georgia town for years, will likely come away from these pages with a new found appreciation of the little Norman Rockwell town called "Adairsville." Danny Pelfrey is the Minister of First Christian Church in Adairsville, Georgia. He is the author of ONE-WAY CHOICES IN A WRONG-WAY WORLD and the co-author with his wife, Wanda, of an inspirational mystery novel entitled, OUT OF THE DEPTHS. For several years he wrote a local newspaper column about growing up in Adairsville While Pelfrey compiled and edited LIFE IN ADAIRSVILLE, he is in order of text contribution the lesser of the three writers. The other two contributors are Alice Butler Howard (1894-1991) and Dan Bowdoin (1923-2009), both talented people with a vast knowledge of their hometown who were greatly admired by Pelfrey and the people of Adairsville, Georgia."
