Summary of Jeff Guinn's Go Down Together

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Henry’s father, Henry, was a farmer in East Texas. He had two half-brothers, Ed and Jim, and a half-sister, Marie. He was completely illiterate, and spent his time dreaming of owning his own racehorse. #2 Henry’s son, Jim, would become a strict parent. He would make sure his son went to church and Sunday School regularly, as he believed that the difference between right and wrong was constantly being reminded of it. #3 Henry and Cumie’s marriage was not a smooth one. They had to move to Milam County, where they continued to grow cotton and produce babies. Henry was never going to be in a position to buy a farm of his own, but he still wanted to. #4 The Barrow family moved to Texas, and Cumie began to send her children to school. She saw to it that they were in class whenever possible, despite the difficult circumstances.
