Way Back in the Ozarks: The Tale of Danny Boy

By Howard J. Hefley and Howard "Ozark Monk" Hefley

Book Overview

Way back in the Ozark Mountains is Mt. Judea, AR-population less than 50, counting the dogs. A place where folks still gather on the front porch "of an evenin'" and reminisce about bygone days. Days when "Ozark Monk" and his faithful "yellow cur", Danny Boy, roamed the hills and hollows. Days when the town supported four country stores, a school, a cafe, lumber mill, and a blacksmith shop. One of the weathered, old stores remains, standing empty-a mute testimony to when folks gathered there to whittle, spit, and spin yarns. But you can still wander down to the creek and listen to the wind whistling through the valleys-and you almost can hear Monk hollering, "Bring 'em to me, Danny Boy " This is the second book by Howard Jean "Ozark Monk" Hefley. Once again Howard teams up with brother James Carl in this sequel to the best-selling Way Back in the Ozarks.

Customer Reviews

An Awesome Book! Highly Recommended Christian Reading.

This book is unique, factual and very well written. Remember Me provides inspirational and enlightening insight into the true meaning of The Holy Eucharist, so often glossed over or deeply buried in religious praxis. I highly recommend this book to Christians of all denominations and affiliations.

Good country time

If you like coon hunting, dogs and trouble, you'll love this book about a boy that has a hunting dog and a racoon. Set in the Ozarks in a town called Judy during the second world war, it a great book about life trials and growing up. I recommend this reasd to everyone.
