R. Wright Campbell's "Honor" tells the story of two families, the Martins and the Washingtons, as they navigate the challenges of race, class, and privilege in the early 20th century. The novel is set in the small town of Franklin, Tennessee, and follows the interconnected lives of the families and their connections to one another.

The Martins are a white family who are struggling to hold onto their traditional values in a time when those values are being challenged. The Washingtons are a black family who are also struggling to hold onto their traditional values, but in a time when those values are required more than ever. The story explores the ways in which the families grapple with the challenges of the time, and the ways that their struggles have an impact on both their individual lives and the community as a whole.; 8vo; $6.00.
