Synopsis

Far From the Peaceful Shore is a vivid and historic commentary of "LIFE" as it was played out for a young boy who was just five through twelve years of age. Living in the Deep South during the days of the Great Depression of the early 1930's was far from easy - there was lots of work for everyone, including the children. Ray Land and his brothers, with their ingenious imaginations wasted no time in conniving ways to have fun, by fair means or foul. Their naughty craftiness tells a story of human nature and survival. However, their exploits were not without consequences. Boys will be boys! These "Short Stories" are a compelling blend of drama, adventure and excitement. And despite the realities of poverty suffering and hard work during that era, this family, and others faced their circumstances with uncomplaining endurance and courage. This book is a classic for all ages.
