Synopsis
Ray Land was born in Hazlehurst, Ga. in 1925 ¿ the early days of the Great Depression. Poverty was rampant and families were desperate. Hard work was a way of life for all ¿ including the children. With no money for luxuries or toys, did Ray and his brothers lead a dull and uninteresting life? Far from it! Give energetic, conniving boys a little ¿rope¿ and they¿ll create lots of excitement and fun, for themselves and others. It is beautiful to observe the resourcefulness that abounds in children, and the simple pleasures that bring delight and enthusiasm to their young hearts. Far From the Peaceful Shore is a ¿picture book¿ of real life as it was in the Depression era. All of the events recorded took place when Ray was a lad between five and twelve years of age. The stories are true and alive with interest and intrigue. People of that day faced the harsh realities of suffering and hardship. It took grim determination and courage to survive. The short stories in this collection are most fascinating, descriptive and historic. It is sure to be a classic that will charm readers in all walks of life ¿ young and old alike.
