Here are twenty-one tales from Ken-
tueky s inimitable and beloved story-
teller, Jesse Stuart. Full of high, ram-
bunctious humor, quick-paced as a
mountain square dance, bright as a
maple tree against an October hill-
these stories are Stuart in his best
form--the form that has made him one
of the most widely read authors in
America. Read here about the man who
coveted a steam shovel and stole it piece
by piece, or about the celebrated eating
contest between Sam Whiteapple and
the game rooster, or about the hill
farmer who wanted to clear and farm
one last spot of new ground before he
died. Although be has a sharp eye for
human foibles and infirmities, Stuart
never fails to write of his people with af-
fection or to see that justice is done
them. Originally published in 1950,
Clearing in the Sky was inadvertently
declared out of print after three years
and never reprinted. Now for Jesse
Stuart s many readers it is once more
available, in cloth and paperbound edi-
tions, with an appreciative foreword by
Ruel E. Foster.
