Wren's Nest undergoes restoration

A copy of Uncle Remus stories sits on a drawing table in the library of the Wren's Nest. Many of the stories were based on African folk tales that Joel Chandler Harris, a native of Eatonton, Ga., heard from slaves and former slaves. Eatonton was also the birthplace of Alice Walker, author of 'The Color Purple.' Kent D. Johnson / kdjohnson@ajc.com
