Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Jane Dawson: A Novel
The man between the handles of the plow had just reached the age of full maturity. His ruddy face, glowing under exercise and ?owing perspiration, had a downy covering lighter in color than his fine head of dark-brown hair. He was above medium height, broad of shoulder, full of chest, and strong of limb. His brow bespoke intelligence of a rare order; his massive chin and jaw indicated firmness of will and purpose; his ceaseless activity and close application to Work showed him to be a man of boundless energy. When he had plowed down to the end of his row of corn, and with his single line drawn the horse around to go back again, his attention was attracted by the sound of some one calling in the mellow, resonant manner of the mountaineers.
