Little Hillbillies of Nantahala (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781512794779)

This book is a series of short stories that give a glimpse into the life and adventures of some little mountain rascals that grew up in the years between 1942 and 1952. Life in the Appalachians was haphazard--sometimes dangerous, sometimes a lot of fun. These little rascals were prone to try just about anything one time. Riding homemade wooden wagons down treacherous mountain trails, swinging on grapevine swings, and building swimming holes were some of a regular day's adventures of these little hillbilly rascals.

There are also stories of life in general during the times of World War II. This was a period of hardship and change. There are stories of how these people survived through this era. During this time, everything was rationed to ensure that during the fight, men were well-supplied and the war effort was met. Many large families had a very hard time just surviving. Through it all, God was so good and merciful.
