From Timber To Town: Down In Egypt (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781163576519)

From Timber To Town: Down In Egypt is a book written by Mrs. T. E. Perley. The book is a memoir of her life in the late 1800s in southern Illinois, which she refers to as ""Egypt"" due to its flat and sandy terrain. The book explores the challenges and joys of living in a rural area during this time period, including the difficulties of farming, the importance of community, and the impact of the Civil War on the region. Mrs. Perley also shares her personal experiences, including her marriage to a local farmer and the birth of her children. The book offers a unique perspective on life in rural America during the late 1800s and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
