Description: Free Media Mail! For faster delivery, upgrade to Priority. Richly Detailed Biographies! Lee County, Arkansas USA New 71-Page Booklet Early days in Lee County, AR, are recalled in this spiral bound booklet, comprised of excerpts from the rare 1889 book, Goodspeed's Biographical and Historical Memoirs of Eastern Arkansas, and a product of the WPA, Arkansas, A Guide to the State, published in 1941. The 71-page booklet is printed on 8.5" x 11" quality paper. A vinyl sheet has been added to protect the front cover. Our copy of the original Goodspeed book had some insect damage in the Lee County section, rendering a few bios incomplete. The rest of the information, however, we felt was worth reprinting and preserving. All bios mentioned below are complete. The first part of the booklet contains a brief history of the county: a physical description of the county; Early officials; John Murrell, an outlaw; Names of early settlers; Taylor Cotton, a world renowned variety of cotton, and other agricultural products; Climate; Marianna, the county seat and principal town, and Haynes.
