Cotton in Augusta is not the usual tale of the genteel life of Southern ladies. It is a story of true heroines of the South who struggled against poverty, prejudice, class and the status of women to raise strong and successful families. Myra was a sharecropper's daughter who never knew the joys of childhood or leisure in her adult life. Her struggle was always to make the best of her circumstances to brighten the way for those she loved. It is a story of love, faith and a woman's search for meaning in an unjust world.

Autorenporträt
Shirley Proctor Twiss, a true daughter of the South, grew up in Swainsboro, Georgia, a small town surrounded by tall pines and cotton fields. She was an avid listener to the great story tellers of her family. Writing was always a dream, but for many years this took a back seat to her happy life as a wife, mother and teacher. She is now retired, a widow and living in Greenville, South Carolina. She is blessed to have three caring children, five wonderful grandchildren, a really fun great-grandson, a self-centered cat and stories to write.
