Born in 1838 in Crawford County, Georgia, Frances Fowler Taylor married at fourteen, bore six children, survived decades of domestic violence, outlasted the Civil War, and kept her family alive through poverty, illness, and loss that would have broken most people twice over.

She wrote her memoir in secret, in the expository style of her Victorian era, with the cadences of the King James Bible and the controlled fury of a woman who had been silenced her whole life. Then she hid it behind wallpaper in her daughter's Brunswick, Georgia, home - where it stayed for decades until a bulge behind a chest of drawers gave it away.

Crossing the Currents is Frances Fowler Taylor's story in her own words - harrowing, fierce, faithful, and utterly alive. Edited and introduced by her great-great-grandsons Howard Bernard Garwood and Galen Garwood, this is a memoir that was never supposed to survive. It did.
