Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Fun of the Fair
Mr. Haycraft had hammered granite for more than half a century, and two generations regarded his familiar round shoulders, crabbed face, thin beard, and bald head as a common object of Belstone. He was very small, and round in the back as a beetle. Folk held him as enduring, necessary, and devoid of interest as the village pump. And now Aaron was nearly at the end of his tether, and his hands, long since calloused into mere pincers by the needs of his business, would soon wield mallet and chisel no more.
