Charleston Had It All

Charleston Had It All tells the history of Charleston, Missouri through a collection of stories compiled and written by local historian and native Mildred Burnett. The book tells what life was like in days long gone by and how folks lived, primarily in the 1940s, ‘50s, ‘60s, and ‘70s, and the gradual changes that made the community what it is today.

Stories from the county-at-large, some going back to the Civil War, make this a comprehensive history of the Charleston-area and the perfect addition to libraries throughout the Bootheel.

Read this book and learn what life was like so many years ago, and why folks from yesteryear loved this little town so much … indeed, Charleston had it all!
