Never Enough Words - Launch Today

Print and Kindle

Never Enough Words is available today on Amazon.

Here are reviews from two Advance Readers:

“Jack Hammond Jr is the consummate storyteller. His latest novel, Never Enough Words, takes readers back to Scots Bend, a small town in South Carolina, in the 1960’s when the South was grappling with societal, sometimes painful, changes that frequently deeply divided communities, even families and lifelong friends. Having grown up in a small Southern town that, much like Scots Bend, also had its “hidden secrets and buried sins,” I could relate to the characters and the situations Hammond so masterfully draws out. I highly recommend Never Enough Words. Reading it caused me to remember both the good and the bad about the times it covers. Once I began reading, I couldn’t put it down.”

As a lifelong Southerner, it is difficult to look back at our tortured history of racial prejudice, discrimination, and violence, but it is both crucial and necessary for us to remember it honestly. As philosopher George Santayana observed, " Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." Winston Churchill refined the sentiment to "Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it." Given the sad state of our current political climate in this country, the need to learn from our past has never been more urgent. Never Enough Words takes us back to a small South Carolina town struggling with obstinate bigotry and hate. Filled with rich descriptions that breathe life into the fictional town of Scots Bend and also genuine characters you might recognize in any small community, Southern society in the 1960s is shown clearly and truthfully. Jack Hammond Jr has brilliantly shined a light on a turbulent era in our history. It is up to us to learn from it.
