From the author's Introduction: "Once upon a time there was a group of towns in the North shire of Bennington County in the State of Vermont. these towns, not that many years ago, were peopled for the most part with hardy citizens who were steeped in the work ethic and spoke in the vernacular of men and women that did not mince words when expostulating their opinions, both philosophical and political. These are stories in their own language and graphic descriptions. No expletives have been deleted in the belief that any child that can read, and many that cannot have already heard them if indeed they are not allowed to use them in polite company".and, further on, "Most of the incidents recorded here occurred in the latter half of the 20th century. Many of the principals have gone to their reward, but they should be remembered as the philosophers and movers and shakers during their lives." Clean, bright copy.
