In his Sunday, October 7, 2018 column, Rex Nelson, Senior Editor at the Arkansas Democrat Gazette discusses Jim’s recent lecture, the John Netherland Heiskell Distinguished Lecture for the Central Arkansas Library System.

He writes:

“The couple didn’t visit Little Rock as part of the research for the book, but there are planty of lessons from other cities. Our Towns should be required reading for all five candidates for mayor, every member of the Little Rock Board of Directors and business and civic leaders.”
