To help me while away my recovery time, my friend and neighbor, Tom Hoover, dropped off a copy of Zell Miller’s latest literary effort, “Purt Nigh Gone,” a compendium of the Southern Appalachians and of a way of life that Zell says, “once was but is no more, a way of life that is purt nigh gone.”
He laments the fact that as boy, he could play hopscotch in the road in his hometown of Young Harris and see nary a car. (Try as I may, I have a hard time visualizing Zell Miller playing hopscotch.)
