Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author Joan Berry continues to write about her Appalachian roots in Saving Grandma in which she clears her grandmother from accusations of murder. 'My grandmother lived her entire life under the suspicion of her in-laws, and those whom they influenced within her own family, that she had killed her infant son. Her heart was broken, her life ruined when her beloved husband, Mennis Shelby Adkins, inadvertently started the rumor from which she never fully covered. This is the story of four generations of women in a direct line of descent who were caught up in a repeating chain of events that began one generation prior to that awful day, September 21, 1927.'
