Join author Perry Allen Wood as he turns the tables on Bill Drake and provides a guided tour through the veteran radio host's life.  From his collegiate days hobnobbing with Harrison Ford to his long stint on South Carolina airwaves, Drake has seen trends come and go.  He spun music from the polka to the British Invasion, covered sports from the Green Bay Packers to the Gamecocks and perfected what he calls "relationship radio." And for 29 years, he was the voice of WSPA-AM, the oldest radio station in  South Carolina.

John Thomas Fowler tells two tales: the story of Trotting Sally, a once familiar street musician to residents of the upcountry of South Carolina and western North Carolina; and the real man few knew.  George Mullins, who lifted himself out of slavery and built a new life, brick by brick.  Fowler fleshes out the public figure and reveals the private man behind one of the Carolinas' most famous and elusive turn-of-the-century African Americans.
