An Ozark Ballad is a novel written by Kirkscey Hubbard that tells the story of a country boy's life in the Ozark Mountains of Missouri. The book is an imaginary biography that follows the protagonist, James, from his childhood to his adulthood. The novel begins with James as a young boy living in poverty with his family. Despite the challenges he faces, James is a curious and intelligent child who loves to learn. He spends his days exploring the woods and reading books, dreaming of a better life for himself and his family. As James grows older, he becomes more aware of the harsh realities of life in the Ozarks. He witnesses the struggles of his family and his community and begins to understand the complexities of poverty and social inequality. Throughout the book, James faces numerous challenges and obstacles, including poverty, illness, and discrimination. However, he never loses his determination to succeed and make a better life for himself and those around him. An Ozark Ballad is a beautifully written and poignant novel that explores themes of poverty, social justice, and the resilience of the human spirit. It is a powerful tribute to the people and the culture of the Ozark Mountains and a celebration of the strength and resilience of those who call it home.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
