Title: A fun local history
Review: This book was written by a local amateur historian, Helen Christian, and is a lot of fun to read. It's the story of Otway, Ohio located in the Appalachian foothills of the south-central section of the state (Scioto County).It describes the people, the businesses, and even the details of a great fire that destroyed much of this small hamlet. Otway is bulging with "characters" and apparently, this is not a change from past days.While this little volume (mine is in hardcover, a green binding) is not terrifically authoritative, being self-published, the author still does a great job of holding one's attention. If you can find a copy for a few dollars it's a worthwhile read, especially for anyone interested in the history of The Buckeye State.
