Product Description:
"This is a pretty rich and exciting time in our history, and if our collective heart can be the ultimate guide, this might be our best defining moment so far."

In Little Rock: One from the Heart, author Bill Worthen provides a fascinating look at the ways in which his hometown has enjoyed many great moments. Little Rock, he writes, remains a city of contrasts, as it has been since its founding. Here, though, folks tend to find a certain unique balance in the midst of it all.

Steeped in local history, Worthen's text offers an entertaining and enlightening look at Little Rock, which seems destined to be one of the South's most influential--and decidedly newsworthy--cities.

Complemented by an exquisite collection of photographs contributed by the area's finest photographers, Worthen's story of Little Rock and its rambunctious heritage ultimately demonstrates the profound impact this relatively small, out-of-the-way state capital has had on the nation. By reliving the low times (like the Central High School integration crisis in 1957) as well as the triumphs (such as Bill Clinton's election in 1992), Worthen provides a singular perspective on this singular city.

Through it all, writes Worthen, "We have as context a history of mixed blessings and a tradition of maturing through them." This resilience puts Little Rock in the enviable position of cherishing its greatest moments, with the promise of many more to come.
