My Mountain Granny

"...although Baker’s book is a tribute to Evelyn, it also qualifies as an homage to the town of Whittier which once had a 'boom town' reputation. The narrative (which manages to be disjointed, pleasant and informative), combines Evelyn’s memories with a collection of remarkable photographs, historical sketches and a generous amount of oral history."

" Excellent, inspiring story of mountain mama.  I wanted to read about the life of someone born and raised in these mountainous parts of NC over the past century and that’s exactly what I’ve experienced from this book."

"I loved this book! The price was also affordable for such a large book. I think it was very good for a self published book."

"I enjoyed the stories in this book, and I honestly laughed out loud at some of the humorous quotes from Ms. Beck.  The way the book is written really gives you insight into who she was and the culture of the town she lived in."
