Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Betty Pembroke The seventh day of March of the year Betty was ten was cold and blustery - just the kind of weather that makes one feel that something is going to happen. The wind gathered its forces in the mountains and then swept through the valleys with raging violence, carrying blinding sheets of dust, breaking off rotten limbs of trees, and blowing down rail fences which happened to be in a tottering condition at The Oaks, the ancestral home of Betty´s maternal people, the Terrells. The old homestead lay on an eminence in a long, open stretch of fair Virginia country. It was hemmed in on the north and west by the thickly wooded Carter´s Mountain, at the foot of which lay the homes of the well-to-do; and on the south and east by the Flatwoods, equally dense save for the small plots of land cleared, which gave faint evidence of the many human beings whose lives and destinies, and poverty, and ignorance, and latent talents it concealed.
