Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have read this book and all the reviews of it. Both the book and the reviews are entirely true. How any educated or uneducated person can live without it is beyond my understanding except that most of the Ozarks now has indoor plumbing. Mitch Jayne and his wife, Diana, have written a wonderful book that combines verbal and visual humor. Diana has given us sketches that are funny and real and honest. Mitch has given us stories with bark on them that remind us why people love the Ozarks as tears roll down their face from laughter. But lest you think this is a book of jokes, be warned. It is also book written in a graceful style about life in and out of the Ozarks and the English language that separates the Ozarker from Americans. Only Donald Harington and Vance Randolph have been able make such a combination work. Add Mitchell F. Jayne of the Dillards and Darling Boys to that list.
