Comin’ Up Cracker is a whimsical look at growing up in North and Central Florida as part of an ever-growing family of preacher’s kids. The author relates events as seen from the eyes of a little girl in the post-war ‘40’s to the ‘60’s. Her tales, ranging from precocious to outrageous are quirky, funny and heartwarming. This book takes the reader on a leisurely journey through a Florida history that is largely lost or forgotten and along the unpaved byways of quaint country towns where residents still proudly claim to be “Florida Crackers”.
