Green Valley

by Katharine Yirsa Reynolds

"Traveling men have a poor opinion of it. Ministers of the gospel have been known to despair of it. Socially ambitious matrons move out of it, or, if that is not possible, despise it. Real estate men can not get rich in it. And humorless folk sometimes have a hard, sad time of it in Green Valley". This is an authentic novel about a small town in the USA. A book about what people tell and don't tell, loves and losses, and the importance of community. Community life which did not go away.
