Autor

CHARLES TALBOT PECK (1857-1882) was born on Henderson Plantation in East Carroll Parish, Louisiana to Dr. Isham and Emma (Henderson) Peck. Educated at the Reagan High School for Boys in Morristown, TN, he later attended Washington and Lee University. In 1876 he founded the Mossy Creek Independent newspaper, and in his early 20s moved to Cincinnati as a lawyer. In April 1879, at age 21, he used his "idle hours" to write his breathtaking novel and then published it as a serial. Cross Mountain Books is pleased to present Charley's Novel in book format for the first time in history. Mary Anderson and Peacock the Mineralogist, The Bad Luck of a Young Southern Girl will bring you to your feet with outrage at the manipulative domestic violence, and to your knees in tears over God's providential care for this family through their many years of struggle.
