The Skillet Diaries Library

Pierce’s years of extensive research has resulted in a growing collection of books that comprise The Skillet Diaries Library. Much of this content has been mostly hidden from the public for many years. Her aim is to share this valuable history with the world in the form of stories ranging from The Great Migration to Mobile, Alabama to Chicago, to San Francisco, California.
