Another writer that discusses the south in frank and honest terms is Hewitt Clarke. He served as a intelligence officer in the Korean conflict and later. Writes of the area north of jones County a lot, Thunder over Meridian, Kemper, Bloody Kemper, The East End Tea Room, and He Saw The Elephant, a book about Lt Charles Read, a southern naval officer who found himself in unlikely battles more than once. Clarke has described the battles of the French/indian war, where the British and French used different Indian tribes to fight each other decades before the war for independence
