 Rating: - This is a great readThis is one that you want to savor and read again and again. Well written, it evokes the sights and smells of the South and Caribbean in the early days. You hate to see the characters grow old and things change as Wilder weaves you into the lives you are loathed to leave. I will keep this one close, to reread often. Rating: - A Marvelous Story That Runs Through GenerationsThe book is BIG, but is easy reading, and the characters soon seem more like friends. You'll find yourself continually referring to the family tree. I bought my book at a Daytona Beach flea market for 10 cents. The price on the cover of this 1964 Bantam Book is $1.95. But it's well worth todays price! Thank you Robert Wilder (1901-1974) for one of the best books ever written! Rating: - Found this book in a laundrymatIt was lying on the floor. I picked it up while waiting for the dryer to finish. In those 15 minutes I got hooked, and never stopped reading for three days. That was about 40 years ago, I know it was in the 1960s.

I whimsically bought this book, having never heard of it and without reading any review. Immediatley, I experienced that feeling of pleasant surprize as I held in my hand a treasure I had accidently unearthed. The characters are superbly developed and subliminally creep into your thoughts hours after ... Read More
