A New Book Available

I read Larry Smith's The Long River Home when it was nearing its final draft. I gave Larry a few suggestions, but the book was already a pretty polished creation.

If you like realistic fiction, if you like a saga that follows a family over years and miles (akin to Thomas Wolfe's Look Homeward Angel and Jack Kerouac's The Town and the City) then you're going to want to get this book.

It's a story of family, struggle, and joy. I love in this book how Smith shows both the sadness and joy of this working-class family making their way in the Ohio River Valley.

Check it out (and even buy it!): http://www.smithdocs.net/WorkingLiveshomepage2.html
