Hanna's Town
Hanna's Tow is the history of nineteenth-century Wabash, Indiana, where the author was raised and where his father was a minister for 30 years. In late autumn 1902 a macabre scene unfolded at the original burial ground of Wabash, which was called both Old Cemetery and Hanna's Cemetery. The task at hand was the disinterment of four bodies. The newest of the four graves held whatever might be left of the corpse of Colonel Hugh Hanna - the founding father and civic icon of the prosperous and picturesque community. It might be argued that Hanna's disinterment was the high-water mark of an outpouring of visible progress, cultural energy, and palpable optimism that the town had experienced during the proceeding 67 years. Hanna's Town talks about the high and low points of this fasinating community.

It follows one eventful year in the life of a family of three girls, Paula, aged 9, Hanna, aged 8, Rose, aged 6 and their little brother.
