The Most They Ever Had by Rick Bragg
April 3, 2011

“This may just be the most powerful work by this gifted author. He bears witness to the lives of the hard-working people who worked the cotton mill in Jacksonville, Alabama, and he doesn’t let them down. He conveys their essence with power: “You need not use foul language to damn a man here. Just say a day’s work would kill him, and you tore him down to the bald nothing.” Bragg reminds us of a set of values and a way of life that defined our country far better than the bigger is better fast-money culture of Wall Street. This book is a powerhouse!”—Deon Stonehouse,
