The Twelfth of August by W.R. Morris

This was a well written account of Buford Pusser's life. It throughly documents events in Pusser's life and the book is by far better than the movies. A must read for the Pusser fan. You'll find it hard to put down once you've started it. Pictures give you a more personal view of the man behind the legend and his close family bonds.

excellent
