Book excerpt: In a Magnolia Minute, Graham's second collection of humorous essays, introduces Graham's notes and observations to those unfortunates who live outside the WHQR listening area. Not all the essays offer belly laughs. Graham writes about watching news broadcasts of soldiers returning home from overseas and remembers when her husband was fighting in Vietnam. She commemorates the death of musicologist Alan Lomax and describes his work with Ruby Pickens Tartt in Alabama's Sumter County, where Graham spent her summers as a child. She exhorts her readers to collect and record their family's stories while they still can.
