A South Carolina woman who grew up in Erwin and Knoxville has co-authored a new book that chronicles the history-making life and military career of a U.S. Air Force 4-Star general.
The result is the just-published book, âLiving the Dream: the Story of Lloyd W. âFigâ Newton,â a 218-page book co-authored by B.J. âBrendaâ Harvey Hill and Gen. Newton.
Hill was born in Knoxville but lived in Erwin until she was 10 years old. Some of her fondest memories are of her grandparents, Oscar and Ida Peake, and their Unicoi County home. Oscar had a 50-year career with the Clinchfield Railroad, and Brenda and her husband, Pat, have, in recent years, worked to raise money for the Clinchfield Railroad Museum in Erwin.
