Alabama.
Hmmmm.
Although I have had no contact with that side of my family in more than fifty years, my grandfather was some kind of mover and shaker in Mobile before he died 25 years ago. I never knew him, but suspect he and I would not have had much to agree on. Still, a guy who leaves most of his estate to his housekeeper can't be all bad.
Anyway, does anybody know a good source on Alabama political/economic history? Just what is the skivvy on that place? I've never been within 1,000 miles of Alabama. Any Alabamans out there (in here)?
(yes, I know I can google, and I will, but there's nothing like a direct refferal from a human)
