"Little Town in Virginia: It Started in Vienna" by Henry Minor

Henry Minor has written the only first hand account of Vienna's history from the 1930s until 2000 (mostly up through the late 60s). Little Town in Virginia: It Started in Vienna (written in 2001!) primarily places the reader during the time when segregation was in full effect. This book was brought to our attention & recommended by students at The University of Virginia.

This is the kind of history (read: non-white) that Maud Robinson and Laine Hyde don't want you to read. For example, today an attempt was made to document with pictures the books carried in the Town of Vienna's Freeman Store. We were curious if they carry Henry Minor's book. A woman behind the counter at the Freeman Store (which is owned by the Town of Vienna) ordered "no pictures". She called the Police to enforce her order. Will the Town of Vienna do anything to uphold their fake history?

As we understand it the Town of Vienna has the authority to subjectively decide who takes pictures in the Freeman Store. Vienna citizens are not allowed to walk in this Town owned "museum" and take pictures without prior approval of the government (or Laine Hyde). Welcome to Vienna history communist style! Doubt us? Go try taking some pictures yourself and see how fast they call the Police.

Don't expect to find this book at Vienna's phony Freeman Store!
