The Fields of Home

by Ralph Moody

Book 5 of 8: Little Britches

The fatherless Moody family moved from Colorado to Medford, Massachusetts, in 1912, when Ralph was entering his teens. "I tried as hard as I could to be a city boy, but I didn't have very good luck," he says at the beginning of The Fields of Home. "Just little things that would have been all right in Colorado were always getting me in trouble." So he is sent to his grandfather's farm in Maine, where he finds a new set of adventures.

Favorite Review - 
"One of the happiest pieces of Americana produced in our times . . . Rich in good talk, good food, good living, and best of all, good people. It is the kind of book you keep hoping will never end."—Chicago Tribune
