About this book
Alice Caldwell Hegan Rice, the Kentucky author who charmed readers with Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch, returns to her home ground in this warm regional novel set in the hill country of southern Kentucky. The story follows the Carsey family and the tangled affections of a small rural community, tracing a young love that grows against a backdrop of country life, family loyalty, and the ordinary joys and hardships of the place. Rice writes with the gentle humor and sympathy for humble people that made her early books so popular, and she gives the landscape and its neighbors a homey, lived-in feeling. It is a quiet, good-hearted story from the sentimental tradition of its day.
