Hard, soft, and very real stories that move South by Midwest. I am a born and bred Southerner successfully transplanted to the Midwest. Very early in my life I learned to love the stories I heard on my grandmother's screen porch. Soon after, an intense love affair with Black Beauty taught me the power of stories to transform and transport. All my life, when someone says, "Let me tell you a story," I have known I will soon learn more about that person than the most thorough recounting of historic detail could ever reveal--and I will have more fun on the way. I offer you these stories--about what growing up meant to four different generations; about neighbors, horses, prejudice, sweethearts, students; about moving, marriage, grandchildren and dogs. I hope they remind you of your own stories. I wish I could hear them.

This is a tale of wonder. Why would a woman leave the safe haven of home and family to go into a world of uncertainty? Betty Kurtz Hamilton did just that. She learned that her journey led others to find courage to follow. It is a story about adventure and overcoming obstacles. It wasn't the road less traveled - it was making a new road. Its simple, direct form tells the story of the road, its heights and depths - at times humorous and most of all about the joy of accomplishment. It is about family relationships and the bond between parents and children.
