Publisher's Synopsis
An early 1900's romantic love story told by my grandfather in 165 love letters to my grandmother, Palmetta. Included with his love and devotion to Palmetta is his quest to cheer up the unfulfilled life of Rosa, his former longtime girlfriend. Christian values, clearly evident in both grandparents, will touch your heart. Written over a period of three and a half years, these letters reveal the combined efforts of my grandparents to deceive everyone of their true love for each other. This deception was likely caused by the image my grandfather wanted to portray as a young highly respected school principal and someone far above the standards of a typical bachelor in those times. This deception continued until six weeks prior to their marriage in June, 1909, at the eastern North Carolina town of Hookerton.
