This book is an honest record of life at the turn of the 20th Century when farm life was and isolated existence, when church attendance meant social contact, once a week, and going to town was a seven mile ride in a spring wagon. The setting is the Flint Hills of Eastern Kansas and living on a farm and the long hours of work that entailed by all family members. A clean very presentable copy in a Brodart mylar jacket.

Walnut Valley Books is a small independent home-based business with the bulk of my holdings being of an American military nature covering everything from the Revolutionary War to the current wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. I also have holdings of books on the Middle East, the southwestern United States (New Mexico especially, Kansas related titles, Oklahoma related titles, and other regionally specialized books. All of my holdings are hand-selected to be good quality books of interest to the reader, historian, or the collector. In addition to the above, you will also find a wide range of other topics such as Medical, US History, autobiographical, biographical, sports, women's studies, and many other eclectic topics.
