Book excerpt: Turn South at the Next Magnolia -- Directions from a Lifelong Southerner is an assemblage of entertaining essays by author Nan Graham. A bi-weekly commentator on Wilmington, NC's local public radio station WHQR, Nan reflects on what it's like growing up and growing old in the South. Turn South at the Next Magnolia presents the perspective of a Southern woman of a certain age who has lived through WWII, segregation, a race riot, cancer, thirty-nine years of marriage, the computer avalanche, a grandchild, the homogenization of our Southern setting into mainstream America, and more change than thought possible. The essays, which first appeared as on-air commentaries, reflect a fresh view of the changes, with a bit of humor to see them through.
