Best Little Town

“Jackson County, where I was born, is the home of Tuckerman, Arkansas,a special place endowed with an abundance of diverse history. And myfriend Wayne Boyce has done a thorough job of making this historycome to life through his determination to put his research efforts andmemories on paper. Aptly named Best Little Town, Boyce’s book details Tuckerman’s past and includes everything from the people who have populated the area to the physical, economic, and political events that have shaped this part of our state. Best Little Town will bring hours of discovery for people of all ages.”

MIKE BEEBE, governor of Arkansas, 2007–2015

“This is rich history. Wayne Boyce gives us a snapshot of a small Arkansas farming town. The writing is superb and the research is meticulous. Here is everything you want to know about outdoor privies, slow-moving sloughs, and horse-driven cotton gins, all nudged along into a very satisfying present.”
