Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Folk Afield
The hamlet seemed to hang in air, lifted, like some fairy village delicate of fabric, against the blue. Its chimneys and little church tower rose from a lap of great hills, and Castillon partook of the mountain colours. The walls re?ected something from the austerity and snow of uplifted nature round about; yet brighter tones warmed the ancient stucco with pleasant ochre and rose that suggested hope and humanity. The tiles were scorched to a silvery pink by summer suns; faint music of children's voices murmured on the air and told of young life and its interests.
