Worth the price

If you like history and live in the Ozarks, you should buy this book. If you do not enjoy history, you will not read more than one or two chapters describing your town. I moved to the Ozarks and read and enjoyed the entire 460 pages, even areas I do not plan to visit. The book is thorough, well written and interesting.
Fantastic

Even though I have lived in the Ozarks my entire life, this book taught me more history about my surroundings than I could have ever learned on my own. I highly recommend this book. It's hard to put down.

When the subject of the Ozarks comes up in South Alabama, the first word to pop into the minds of most people is "Branson".

As a travel guide, it shows there is something in the Ozarks for every taste. It provides great suggestions for fascinating, varied and unexpected things to see and the best ways to see them. Ms. Rossiter also gives addresses for getting more information about the places she describes.In addition to its excellence as a travel guide, A LIVING HISTORY comes with a special bonus: Ms. Rossiter's insight into history and the Ozark culture and psyche. That insight will help explain the reasons for the uniqueness of the area and its people. Even native Ozarkers will come away with a better understanding of themselves. Don't head for the Ozarks without it!
