Vermont Vignettes In Word And Line PDF Download

If you love folklore stories from the past, this is the book for you! Here we have a collection of stories, many never published, about the "good old days" in Vermont. In word and line they show life in an earlier era and particularly the clever rogues living it. The collection grows out of a collaboration between three "Vermonters by choice." Germaine LeClair came as a child from Canada to Vermont, where she has spent most of her life on a farm, A natural storyteller, she shares old family stories, part of a rich cultural heritage. Ida Washington retired from teaching to write historical books about Vermont. In the course of her research she turned up many tales too good to let disappear into obscurity. Shelia Mitchinson came to Vermont with her preacher husband, studied, art and became a professional illustrator specializing in drawings of Vermont landscape and people. The result of this collaboration is a group of stories form the past that show the spunk and vigor and just plain cussedness that are still a part of Vermonters today. Available from Cherry Tree Books - $4.95 plus shipping.
