Illustrated Conversation With A Barn Cat

Drawing on his experiences as a rural Missouri Goat Farmer, the author has produced a short collection of essays that will bring a smile of recognition to those who love the people, the land, and the culture of the Ozarks. Describing activities as pastoral as a stroll across a newly mowed hay field and as ordinary as a pet dog's close encounter with a skunk, he evokes the rhythms of a nearly forgotten life style. The overall tone is gentle good humor blended with love for the time and place.Sweet illustrations by the gifted Betty Morgan Singer bring the stories new freshness and empathy.
