Letters to Savanah Belle: Tales, long and short from the crown of Maine (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781484917053)

Letters to Savanah Belle is a delightful book of anecdotes, characterizations, brief tales, impressions and descriptions of Maine country life. Combining an unpretentious, homespun writing style with a good sense of humor, Bob Fields has distilled the very essence of Aroostook County in the nineteen forties and fifties. Bob has recalled the feelings he had growing up: the happiness, the sadness, the fears, and the triumphs. He has uncanny recollections of characters, mentors, incidents, experiences and events. He writes about emotions and themes which are common to all people: family unity, friendships, the importance of individual freedom and the influence of our past heritage on the present. The author uses letters as an effective way to introduce memories and descriptions of an area and converts them to short stories. His basic ideas come from real life; the telling comes from his imagination. The most exciting part of his writing focuses on personalities, bringing his characters vividly to life while unfolding a story that fairly sweeps his readers along.
