A native Kentuckian, Brantley currently lives in a retirement community in northern Florida created by the late retail giant J.C. Penney. He has lived in Marion and still owns property here where his family has been for multiple generations dating back more than 200 years.
His latest book, Summer of the Waxman, was recently released and locals will be very familiar with setting.
For more about this book and how to get it, read this week's full edition of The Crittenden Press.
