In the shadow of the Blue Ridge / by Carolyn Tyree Feagans.
This moving story begins in 1898, and follows the life of Pocahontas (Poky) Fitzgerald to her 97th birthday. Poky, a midwife in the Blue Ridge with a unique spiritual wisdom, realistically portrays life in these ancient but gentle mountains during the last century. Witness the struggle of the mysterious Monacan people as it sadly, but triumphantly, weaves throughout the pages. Follow the tragedy of the Great Depression and World War II as they wrap their tentacles around America, including Lynchburg, a little town at the foot of the Blue Ridge. Simultaneously, a heart-warming love story emerges on Oak Mountain, one that will captivate you, bringing tears to your eyes. You will see history come alive on these pages!--back cover
