BEST-IN-BOOKS — The Wind In The Forest + Charlie Brown & more

Description: BEST-IN-BOOKS The Wind In The Forest + Charlie Brown & more Doubleday (1958) Condition: book is GOOD TO VERY GOOD, jacket is FAIR to GOOD. Contains the novel THE WIND IN THE FOREST by INGLIS FLETCHER, plus excerpts from: DANDELION WINE (Ray Bradbury), GOOD OL’CHARLIE BROWN (Schulz), WOMAN’S GUIDE TO BETTER LIVING (Schindler). Sorry, but I don’t seem to find any reviews of this particular book. Since only the novel is complete (the others are excerpts), I will quote a review or two of the Wind in the Forest… although I do admit to liking the Charlie Brown excerpts, myself. Commentaries on line: Between 1940 and 1957 Inglis Fletcher wrote nine novels set in early North Carolina history. "The Wind in the Forest" is the ninth and is just as compelling as each of the others. The romantic plot here revolves around the 1771 Battle of Alamance, a fight between colonial militia called out by Governor William Tryon and backwoodsmen who called themselves Regulators as they joined in protests over tax assessments and other perceived oppressions by the governor. Mrs. Fletcher was a writing master of suspense and old-fashioned innocent romance as she built her characters with believable personalities, whose interactions were both within the context of their historical era—and timeless. A very entertaining read if you have an interest in Scot's history in the old world as well as the new world. I enjoy historical novels. ______________________ {I'll always combine shipping costs and refund any excess shipping charges for multiple-copy book orders.}For all "buy it now" items, please use ADD TO CART if you plan to order more than one item at the same time.______________ WOW!
