Echoing Hills

By Phyllis Crossland

Subjects: Yorkshire, England

Description: When the motherless ten-year-old Ellen and her young brother William were first taken to Truns Farm by their father to meet his new wife, she little realized that it was the start of an association between her family and that place which would last for generations. This is a down-to-earth story of human existence and experience in all its richness and harsh reality. Adolescence, first-love, marriage. Battling with the elements, death, and the callous greed of human nature. Making ends meet financially. And, amid all, the warmth of family life and lassting relationships reinforced by an intuitive faith in all things working together for good.
