{"product_id":"historic-tales-of-highlands-helen-hill-norris-9781540248091","title":"Historic Tales of Highlands: Looking Backward","description":"Helen Hill Norris grew up in Horse Cove, perched high in the Southern Appalachians outside Highlands, North Carolina. For a decade starting in 1958, she wrote a weekly column for the Highlander called Looking Backward. Drawing on her childhood and the tales her elders would tell around the fireplace, Norris conjures a bygone frontier world of covered wagons, gold miners, traveling peddlers and headstrong shopkeepers. Witness a harrowing Civil War encounter with the notorious Kirk's Raiders. Come along as a six-mule wagon carries a Steinway grand piano across the treacherous Chattooga River. Watch two uncles go to extremes to settle an argument over whether moles have teeth. Evocative, richly detailed and often laugh-out-loud funny, these stories reveal Norris to be one of the finest unsung storytellers of the American South.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Helen Hill Norris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1540248097\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540248091\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History PR\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/07\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 162\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.44d","brand":"Helen Hill Norris","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44050813747455,"sku":"9781540248091","price":40.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e5b3a9c4-a5c5-4403-bbc5-f3340fd12ab6.jpg?v=1685009401","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/historic-tales-of-highlands-helen-hill-norris-9781540248091","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
