White Trash: Childhood Memories on Happy Top - Hardcover

by Rosa Pannell (Author)

Georgia White Trash is the story of Be Be Beasley and her 11 brothers and sisters. They grew up in a place called Happy Top. It was an area filled with run down shacks, sitting on top of a gloomy hill. The Beasley children had many adventures most of which they liked to settle with their fists. The following is a collection of memories from Be Be, as she shares some of the highlights from her family's past. These stories include one sister stealing from the mob, another shooting her husband (although he claimed self-defense), as well as what it was like growing up poor in Happy Top just to name a few. Only two of the Beasley siblings still survive but they all managed to leave behind the one place that would never define them.
