Blevins, whose ancestry goes back 150 years in Dade County, says he wrote "As I Recall" to capture the joys and struggles of family and friends in the North Georgia community.

"You won't want to miss the real-life stories about the snake handlers, moonshining and spending 17 years in jail," he says.

Extra copies of the book will be available for purchase at the signing.
