Description To Books The Calling of Dan Matthews

. . . This story began in the Ozark Mountains. It follows the trail that is nobody knows how old. But mostly this story happened in Corinth, a town of the middle class in a Middle Western state. There is nothing peculiar about Corinth. The story might have happened just as well in any other place, for the only distinguishing feature about this town is its utter lack of any distinguishing feature whatever. In all the essential elements of its life, so far as this story goes, Corinth is exactly like every other village, town or city in the land. This, indeed, is why the story happened in this particular place.

This is the sequal to Shepherd of the Hills, one of my all time favorites, but it could stand alone. This book is more thought provoking and a little harder to read due to its message.

I liked his use of "the Ally" as a character to represent the murkiness of thought and action behind the scenes. This was a product of its time so be

Another wonderful book by Harold Bell Wright. We really enjoyed it.

Very well written, but sometimes hard to follow.

I was impressed with this book, as I was fearing a sequel to the Shepherd of the Hills could only be disappointing. Apparently I did not have enough faith in Harold Bell Wright. He was wise in making it connected but not so much that if you hadn't read the first one you couldn't enjoy this one. His writing style is superb and using "The Ally" was a most descriptive way in capturing this small town.
