Voices of the Hills
A Journey to Shannon County
|
From the black depths of its many caves, to the sparkling waters of
the Current and Jack's Fork Rivers, "Voices of the Hills: A Journey
to Shannon County" profiles Missouri's most scenic areas. Written by
Joel Vance, "Voices of the Hills" is a spirited exploration of
this Ozark country's rich culture, history and natural wonders.
It recounts changes brought by the logging days, the Depression, World War II and Shannon County's bustling tourist trade. Authentic Ozark folk music ties the historical account together in a lively and entertaining way. "Voices of the Hills" is a perfect companion for a weekend drive or hike through the hills and hollows of Shannon County.
