All good wishes Billy C. Clark". Autographed copies rarely offered. Billy C. Clark was a member of a sprawling, ragged family. His father was an intelligent, fiddle-playing shoemaker with little formal education. His mother often took in washing to help provide food for the family. Billy grew up in a derelict house, The Leaning Tower, on the banks of the Ohio. Always hungry, often dirty, and without sufficient clothing, he led an adventurous life on the two rivers, swimming, fishing, and salvaging flotsam from the frequent floods. He set trotlines for fish and trap lines for mink and muskrats, and he walked fourteen miles before school to clear his traps. He learned laughter from his magnificent mother and wisdom from his father, who taught him that poor folks have a long row to hoe. Billy was the only one of his family to seek an education, and through his traps, his river salvage, and odd jobs, he earned money to put himself through school. The book ends with a powerful account of his parents' pride at his graduation. Signed by Author.

The mule was Old Kate, as weathered as the Kentucky hills she roamed, and the boy was Isaac, who met her one summer day and was never quite the same again. Kate was a 'thinking' mule, and a thinking mule spells trouble. For one thing, she chased rabbits and charged polecats as a matter of principle. She jumped fences, tried to climb trees, raided cornfields, and picked blackberries for snacks. She was fond of book learning, especially American history, and insisted upon following Isaac to school. She liked to wander around town at night and terrorized the whole community. And even wound up in jail (see image). In this engaging , often hilarous tale, Billy C. C.ark writes with feeling and warmth of a boy who lost his heart to a four-footed genius and took a long step on the path to manhood.
