The Spout Spring & (As a Bonus) Too Poor to Paint Too Proud to Whitewash

About the Book

Ever wonder how your ancestors might have lived their daily lives and how they reacted to the news of the day? The writer did and the result is The Spout Spring-a story of the Blue Ridge Mountains and Peter and his family who lived there-and a special lady whose spirit is in the spring and who talks only to Peter.

"The Spout Spring is a winning and unique combination of time, place, fact and imagination."
-Helen Haddad, author of Picture of Guilt
