Ordinary people, extraordinary lives. The Strouds, eight siblings born into rural poverty in Emanuel County, Georgia, experienced both modest triumphs and grievous tragedies during the first half of the 20th Century. Emanuel's Children recreates their varied life choices and personal struggles. As the collective memory of a generation is lost, these stories pay homage to ordinary but nonetheless complex men and women who demonstrated courage daily and who usually, but not always, remained true to their better natures. To know their lives is to understand an essential part of the great changes that have transformed the South and the nation.
