Praise for Robert Morgan:
Robert Morgan's fiction is "about people who have a deep sense of themselves, who were not created by a huge and complicated society but by a small, simple one in which individual character sprouted slowly and in trial bloomed... wise, eloquent."
— New York Times Book Review. . .
"Reads like a fireside chat, a storyteller's story, frozen in time on the printed page."
— Southern Living. . .
Robert Morgan should be declared a national treasure.
— The Charlotte Observer. . .
