Mid, A Girl In The Mountains
No Customer Reviews
Meet cleareyed and spirited Mid Cover. Her story is set in the beautiful mountains of West Virginia during the years of the Great Depression. Mid and her siblings spent happy hours playing and foraging in the woods. However, Pocahontas County was not idyllic: poverty, stench from a tannery and polluted rivers were pervasive. Mid's childhood was sheltered until her world was rocked by scandal. Nothing could have prepared seventeen-year-old Mid for the series of events that changed her life forever. Pop, unable to cope, split up the five children farming them out to family and friends. Mid was sent to her uncle's farm. Then at a country dance, she met Pat. Betrayal and abandonment followed her. Her emotions of loneliness and loss are heart breaking. Pat's return gave them a second chance. Portentous events loomed again with World War II. Only their letters kept each other's spirits up. This story is rich with historical details, love, hope, and resilience.
