Way Back When

by James C. Hefley

Way back when pioneers crossed the mighty Mississippi River, the first settlers made their way deep into the Ozark Mountains. Much of this world has vanished now. The rutted wagon trails have been smoothed into blacktop roads. Families are spread across the continent rather than across the creek. Author James Carl Hefley takes you back to the "good ol' days" of Big Creek Valley, in Newton County, Arkansas. Catch a unique glimpse into the lives of the folks who shaped this little corner of the world. You'll come away appreciating the roots we all have in the way back when.
