Mountain Tribulations: Latrelle, a Woman of Integrity (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781491703632)

Substance, integrity and selfless love abound in the North Georgia mountains! Dr. Clarence Drummond a well-respected minister expressed it best, "Silvia has written a masterpiece! In the depiction of her characters and this story she has plumbed the depths of human depravity and reached the heights of human nobility." He "predicts that MT will do more to transform Christian faith than has all the preaching that has ever been done here". Unlike the ridiculous Hollywood portrayal of mountain people as uneducated and bootleggers, Fontaine paints a realistic picture of an almost-forgotten moment in the 1930s and 1940s before the invasion of the electronic age. Through the intense love and heartache of the main character Latrelle comes alive as she matures from a young farm girl into an intelligent insightful woman.
