Additional Comments: It is you who likes Sharyn McCrumb, right? I've decided to try to read some more of her appalachian series books. I forgot which ones you said you liked best. I've read The Rosewood Casket, She Walks These Hills and another that I forget the name of right now, darn it! Which ones to you recommend? Have you read all of them?

Message: I think the two you mention are the best. My favorite is Rosewood Casket. Have you read any of the Ballad Series? Ballad of Frankie Silver was pretty good. She also has a book of short stories, Foggy Mountain Breakdown which I enjoyed. She is so versatile, writes in so many genres. She has a great sense of humor. Her short story, Gentle Reader is a hoot. She has two sci fi farces: Zombies of the Gene Pool and Bimbos of the Death Star. Her last two have been about NASCAR racing. St. Dale was very good, but the latest, Once around the Track was the only thing of hers that I didn't finish.
