"At a Place Called Buckingham" . . . Historic Sketches of Buckingham County, Virginia covers 250 years of history in central Virginia. In a dozen engaging essays, historian Joanne Yeck recounts important events in Buckingham County beginning with its formation, through the American Revolution and the Civil War, and beyond the Great Depression. Local heroes and heroines spring to life, revealing the tenacity, intelligence, and ingenuity of Buckingham's people. New material gleaned from county records, 19th century newspapers, and numerous private collections offers a fresh look at Buckingham's past. The result is a rich tapestry, which interweaves well-known figures and historical moments with little known tales of hard times and personal triumphs.

Yeck, Joanne L.: - After earning her doctorate in cinema studies at the University of Southern California, Joanne Yeck taught and wrote about film history for many years. She is the author of dozens of articles concerning Classic Hollywood and American Popular Culture, and is the co-author of Movie Westerns and Our Movie Heritage. Beginning in 1995, her interest in Virginia history became a full-time occupation. Years of research resulted in four books: "At a Place Called Buckingham," Volume I (2011) and Volume II (2015), The Jefferson Brothers (2012); and Peter Field Jefferson: Dark Prince of Scottsville and Lost Jeffersons (2018). Her multibiography, The Blackest Sheep: Dan Blanco, Evelyn Nesbit, Gene Harris and Chicago's Club Alabam (2019), celebrates the unconventional life of her great uncle, Gene Harris.
