The Last Zinnia

By Joseph B. McGinnis Sr. and Joseph B. McGinnis Sr

This is the story of Franklin Delano Gault. He and his family moved to Summerton, Georgia in the 1940s, crowded into an old cattle truck and gawking at their new surroundings "like a bunch of tourists." Franklin's earliest playmates were the black children of sharecropper families, and only when school began did he come to realize the extent of the separation of the races. Through death and illness, good times and bad, the Gault family continued to grow and prosper, and Franklin never forgot his roots, even when he became the president of the local bank. This is his story-a story of the deep-seated beliefs, long-held values, and unwavering love of a southern family whose bonds cannot be broken.
