Publisher Description
Cloud of Expectation:
American classic in the making
Summer, baseball, and Ricky Nelson . . . the fi rst stirrings of rock n roll on the radio . . . bicycles, soda pop, and puberty on the way . . . kids suspended between the Farm World, the Town World, and the Great World.
Therell be no more books like this because times, as they say, have changed. Take it as a gift from way-back-then to now; or a critic might call it the Last
Train from Mayberry.
An accomplished, lyrical vision of a locality over several generations.
--- Kirkus Reviews
I so enjoyed your fi rst book --- I couldnt put it down!
--- Gertrude Barnstone
Rich with personal and historical detail and sparkling with clear and concise
diction, the book succeeds in revealing the bygone, small-town life not only
of Arkansas but also . . . of an earlier and simpler America as well.
