This book was released on 2013-10-22. Greer SC available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This is a collection of columns, written when I was editor of the Greer Citizen newspaper, that focuses on my hometown. I took up writing "Off the Record" when my father, Edd A. Burch, passed away in 1985. He started "Off the Record" as editor of the Dalton (Ga.) Citizen, and continued the column when he purchased the Greer Citizen in 1942. Over the years, the columns garnered awards from the South Carolina Press Association, and thousands of readers requested that I publish them in a book. - Author. This book truly brings out the rich heritage of small-town America. From a small town barbershop to the state football championship, Burch's waggish tongue-in-cheek approach will bring a smile to any and all. - William James, on back cover.

Legendary Locals of Greer, South Carolina available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Greer, an 1876 railroad town, was founded by people who moved from farms, the mountain region of the Dark Corner, and other small communities to the area around Greer's Depot with high expectations of prosperity promised by railroad commerce and, later, the cotton mills. Like a colorful quilt with its individual patches, the early population of Greer included farmers, store keepers, laborers skilled and unskilled, and their wives and families. As the town grew, investors funded three local cotton mills; mill hands and supervisors arrived to operate them. The bankers, attorneys, physicians, teachers, and ministers followed. Eager to succeed, they all labored long and hard, some heroically like Officer William Foster and volunteer fireman Carl Miller, who died in the line of duty. Greer folk reared families, provided education, and imbued their children with strong moral and religious values. Their descendents continue to populate the city today with a strong sense of community pride.
