In the early nineteen hundreds, Lucas and Emma's romance is laced with tenderness and pathos--pathos because of her family's objection to her marrying a young man of sharecropping stock while her heritage is one of landowners.\u003cp\u003e Their love letters over a three-year period bring the story to life. These are actual letters written in that time period by a real-life couple--the author's paternal grandparents. The letters are presented with original errors in word usage, grammar, spelling, and punctuation which adds to their sense of authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e There is much going on in the Eden Hills. Interesting and believable characters, some eccentric, some not, people the landscape. These residents of the Hills cope with crop failures due to boll weevil infestation and extreme weather, disease, death, romances of the young and old, strangers in the community, a devastating tornado, moonshiners, a deranged arsonist who burns barns, and many other events and human obstacles that make up the fabric of their lives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Howell Somervell June Howell Somervell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 144017220X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781440172205\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/02\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 332\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.88d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Howell Somervell June Howell Somervell","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47579734802687,"sku":"9781440172205","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e207f97e-372a-40a9-876c-8059d7e45138.jpg?v=1763876282","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-hills-of-eden-howell-somervell-june-howell-somervell-9781440172205","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
