Roger Stonebanks has written an authoritative book on Ginger Goodwin called Fighting For Dignity. The book is carried in the museum gift shop.

Much of Roger's research for the book was done at the Cumberland museum so he is well aware of how the museum's photo archive is organized. Now, several years hence, he can easily specify exactly which photo from the museum's archive he wishes to refer to in his current correspondence and have that photo traceable in the museum's archive.

A recent email from Roger recommended the following photos specific to Ginger Goodwin be included in our website. The text included here is from Fighting For Dignity:
