Just for your information. After finally almost recovering from my computer crash, I have completed a new book -which is really a very old book! Here's the information on it. Bear Wallow Belles: Originally published in 1903 by Dr. C. R. Wilson, this is quite a delightful book. A novel? Yes. Historical? Yes. A love story? Yes. A Civil War story? Yes. The setting is Bear Wallow, KY in Barren County 1861 through 1863. Using real people and real events in this little community, Dr. Wilson weaves a tale of many events. Some people are real from our history here; some are fictitious - or their names were disguised. The reader meets people from Chicken Bristle, Goosehorn, Lick a Skillet and Hell's Half Acre - a combination of Southern people, their slaves, an Irishman and some Yankees tossed in. The tale revolves around the Civil War and how it impacts the people of Bear Wallow. Some fighting for the South, some for the North, all dedicated to the cause, Right in the middle are the Bear Wallow Belles, three beautiful young ladies from the South and the North, all living in Bear Wallow. The book comes complete with tender courtships, the horror of war, the bravery of the young men who loved the Belles .... with a louse, a church mouse, an unusual duel and other interesting tales included. The last two pages will stun the reader. Whether one is from the North or South, this is also a touching look at slavery in a peaceful community with many other characters adding to the charm and humor. 136 pages including biographical information, a look at the communities mentioned and full name index.
