Book Synopsis The Old Home Place by : Alvin H. 'Al' Terrell
Download or read book The Old Home Place written by Alvin H. 'Al' Terrell and published by BLACK OAK MEDIA INC. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "America, home of the brave and the free" This is a well-deserved description of America, but it hardly describes the complexity of our great nation. Describing America would be like describing a large, moving picture that is constantly changing. Each of its many components is different than all the others. To understand America one would have to understand every individual, in every culture, in every community. To leave out any piece of the big picture would distort America's image and deny the opportunity to know America itself. This book gives the reader a piece of the big picture that represents a bygone era. As a nation, we have made a lot of progress over the years and we can be proud of our accomplishments, but we should remember, our roots are the foundation of our success. Go back in time with the author to relive the old stories just as they happened in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s in rural Arkansas. Experience the humor, nostalgia, and the tragedy of a bygone era. Each reader will experience something different, but will come away enlightened having enjoyed these glimpses of a simpler time.

Living as a young person in the ’60s and ’70s in the Midwest wasn’t easy, but it was always filled with love, laughter, and a sense of community. In his memoir, Barnett shares the peaceful moments of growing up, from Christmas mornings to picking strawberries in the summers, and the realization he has now as an adult of just how hard his parents worked to provide a joyful life for himself and his sister. By recording his own upbringing, we are given a glimpse into the past, and a time capsule for future generations to connect with those who came before. About the Author Thomas E. Barnett was born and raised on a farm in Livingston County, Kentucky, with a vision of rolling hills and valleys, a place called Bizzell Bluff. He lived three miles from the nearest town, called Burna, a small agricultural community where everyone looked out for one another. He attended Livingston County High School from 1973 to 1977.

Download or read book Pearlie written by R. F. Jones and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many might wonder what an Oklahoma farm girl born in Indian Territory in 1906 has to offer in a life story. Pearlie: A Relatively True Story will prove that it's a lot. R.F. Jones pieces together the highlights of Pearlie's life into a historically rich, fictionalized biography that will enthrall and delight readers who love God, romance, history, or all three. Pearlie is about the title character's love affair with her childhood mate and their fifty-four-year marriage; her love affair with nature and the 'old home place' from which she was torn when she got married; her love affair with her Lord and his church; and her love affair with poetry, which she constantly uses to think through her most intimate thoughts and express her relationships on both a physical and spiritual level. With the help of R.F. Jones, Pearlie tells her story tenderly and humorously, with more smiles and laughter than tears, with escalating levels of happiness, and with a realistic but happy ending. It's a story about eternal life lived in the here and now. 'This Christian biography of an Oklahoma poetess combines the poignancy of the classic 'I Remember Mama, ' the humor of 'Life with Father, ' and poems which are reminiscent of Helen Rice Steiner's finest works. To read Pearlie is to experience a rich and inspiring ride back into Oklahoma history and encounter a Christian wife, mother, and writer who saw beauty everywhere and transformed her everyday world into a place of inspiration.' -Hope Harder, PhD in English literature, author of a series of books including 'Silent Voices'
