Jean Webb, a former teacher and administrator at Ernest Ward High School in Walnut Hill, is busy these days promoting her book, and now she has a web site where her book is available.

Set in Richmond, VA, and Mobile during the 1880’s, “Feet of Clay” is a family saga, a historical romance, a murder mystery, a courtroom drama and a study of human behavior all rolled into one.

“There are no perfect heroes here, only men with feet of clay,” she said of her book.  “They have been wronged:  They have done wrong, but are honorable men with all too many human flaws.”

Her interests include reading, writing, and following sports — especially football and basketball.  She has four children: Letha, Rick, Jean, and Pellar. She now resides near Wetumpka, Alabama.  She was recently been nominated to be inducted into the Alabama Senior Hall of Fame.

Webb’s new web site is jjwebb.com. Feet of Clay is also available at amazon.com.

    Mrs. Webb taught me at Ernest Ward. She was responsible for my love of literature, reading and a fasination(?) with words that has carried me through life. I graduated in 1961 with a good education from some really great teachers.
