20172 Lily A. Bear Beyond The Trail
Crockett, Kentucky Rod and Staff Publishers Inc. 1993 9993243485 Hardcover Very Good with no dust jacket Illustrated by Virginia Bear
No wear, pages are tight, text clean, b&w illustrations, book in very good condition! ; "The year is 1936, and the month is May. The Kauffman family pack all their belongings - at least all that they plan to move with them - into four horse-drawn wagons and begin the 500-mile trek to a new home. The oldest daughter, Doris, has gone ahead by train, and shy 17 year old Ruth wishes with all her heart that she could have gone too. She shrinks in deep embarrassment at the spectacle she is sure they are making with their patched-up dilapidated wagons loaded with old worn-out furnishings and outdated farm equipment. Even the livestock - 12 milk cows that are herded along the road and need to be milked every morning and evening, 10 squealing pigs in a crate, and an assortment of hens - are taken along. Laundry, bread baking, cooking, and all the necessary activities of life are done along the road. The younger children, delighted with the adventure, have lively times . . . This genuinely Christian family leaves a consistent testimony for the Lord along their difficult route - a testimony that will also touch and encourage the hearts of those who read this book. "
