Echoes from the Mountains Pauline Hensley Harber

Life in the mountains of Harlan County can be difficult, but the beauty and serenity of the region can also be healing. In Among the Mountain Laurels we followed the life of Pauline Harber from her youth in the forties and fifties in her little mountain community of Martin's Fork, through her foray out into the world beyond her beloved mountains, to her fight with kidney disease, and even more joys and tragedies. Echoes from the Mountains continues and expands the stories of Pauline's ancestors mentioned in Among the Mountain Laurels. Be with Grace and Malachi as they come into Brush Mountain for the first time; meet Emily and cheer her indomitable spirit as she raises her children in the harsh mountain environment, learn more about Liddie and Ruthie, and discover what's become of their many children.
