I received as a Christmas gift the new book "Textile Town, Spartanburg County, South Carolina" published by the Hub City Writers Project. It is a thorough, fascinating story about the textile industry in the County since it started. It has many photos and tells the story of almost all of the textile communities in the area. Has many personal interviews and family stories. As one example, Mickey Foster had a posting on this list on Christmas Eve about Drayton and her Aunt Irene Gault . Well, on pages 120 and 121 of this book there is a wonderful interview, including a photograph of Ms. Gault. I think anyone with an interest in Spartanburg County will enjoy the book.
