Give me Thy vineyard

the long version

The locations and characters as portrayed in this novel are characteristic of many areas still existing, unspoiled by the inroads of greed, selfishness and the rush of our modern civilization. The conflict between two ways of life has existed in the Ozarks too often. Railroad right of ways have been taken and graded, and lake beds cleared of all life back of man-made dams. There is no United Electric Company in name, but there is in deed. - Foreword.
