Touchstone

Touchstone
Inspired by her husband's family, Linda Eatmon-Jones wrote Touchstone, a biography of a family that turned being the victims of one tragic KKK raid on their property into five generations of successful contributions to the world. From teens to seniors, Eatmon-Jones's in-laws have demonstrated how the sacrifice, courage, and humility of ordinary people can have lasting positive effects on others and even save lives. Touchstone won the 2017 CIPA EVVY Merit award in the biography category. After reading Eatmon-Jones's Touchstone, readers will see the extraordinary in the "ordinary" people they come in contact with each day, just as Eatmon-Jones does.
