Work Description

''Unforgettable...pure joy...'' Harper Lee, author of To Kill a Mockingbird

The classic novel that inspired the television series "The Waltons," read by the series' star.

The Spencers are a hardy clan. Grandpa Spencer fathered nine boys who live in the shadow of the Grand Teton mountain that bears their name. Grandpa's son Clay married Olivia and had nine more kids, "all thoroughbreds," Clay beams. Now the eldest son is out of high school, eager for more book learning. But college money is hard to come by.
