This book tells in lively fashion of the experiences of a young
woman who, to escape from grief and loneliness, goes to work in a
settlement school in the heart of the Kentucky mountains.

There she instantaneously "acquires a family" of a dozen small boys
and henceforth finds her life "crammed with human interest." The
ludicrously funny and sometimes pathetic doings of the little,
untamed feudists, moonshiners, and hero worshippers, form the
subject-matter of the tale.

The story centers about one of the boys who has an "active war" in
his family and whose martial adventures with those of his grown-up
brother give a strong appeal to the narrative and furnish an
exciting climax.

"Good luck to this admirably written narrative, a model of direct
and simple humor and very sincere human understanding."--_The
Bellman_.

"Certainly no romance of the Kentucky mountains ever told more that
was amusing, or picturesque, or tragic than her chronicle
does."--_N. Y. Post_.

"Her style is graceful and clear, and her fascinating narrative
cannot fail to widen the horizon of her readers in more ways than
one."--_N. Y. Times_.
