This sounds great. I'm going to head to the library today or tomorrow morning and I'll see if they have it there.

What is this book about?

**heaven** · 01-29-2003, 03:21 PM

here is the back of the book.
After the great market crash of 1929, families everywhere are falling on desperate times. Raised by a grandmother who instilled a love for simple pleasures and the good, wild things growing on God's green earth, Julia Worthham is determined to make a decent life for her children. Her husband, Samuel, carries the shame of losing his job, their home, and Julia's savings. He also bears the impossible burden of providing for his family.
Then circumstances forces the family to seek shelter in an abandonded farmhouse- and to find mercy in a strangers heart. Emma Graham, the elderly owner, is indeed merciful. But there are others who will stop at nothing to drive the Worthams from the farm. Meanwhile, Sam and Julia's fears could compel them to abandon the one place they and their children long to call home.

Sounds good! I just called the library to see what time they close and what I needed to get a card here in Norfolk (I only have one for Virginia Beach). I'll try to go tonight to see if they have it.
