HOME ON THE VANDEVERT RANCH
Where the Skies Were Not Cloudy All Day
Grace Vandevert McNellis

Until 1950, life on the Vandevert family homestead remained pretty much as it was in the 1890s. Life was nature and nature was life. The essence of the book is what matters. What we have is a heartwarming story of a period in the history of a proud and happy American family–a true slice of Americana as told in the honest, homey voice of one who lived it. Grace captures the routine hardships and deep satisfactions of that long-gone era and shows in this fascinating account how life without television and cell phones could be far more rewarding.
