After all, their fortune came through the market crash intact, and they've picked out the perfect suitor for their daughter. Braxton Crandall can give her the kind of life she's used to. The only problem? This is not the man--or the life--she really wants. When Piper gets the opportunity to volunteer as a horseback Frontier Nursing courier in the Appalachian Mountains for the summer, she jumps at the chance to be something other than a dutiful daughter or a kept wife in a loveless marriage. The work is taxing, the scenery jaw-droppingly gorgeous, and the people she meets along the way open up a whole new world to her. The longer she stays, the more an advantageous marriage slips from her grasp. But something much more precious--true love--is drawing ever closer. Bestselling author Ann H. Gabhart invites you into the storied hills of Eastern Kentucky to discover what happens when one intrepid young woman steps away from the restrictive past into a beautiful, wide-open future.

Download or read book Backwoods Witchcraft written by Jake Richards and published by Weiser Books. This book was released on 2019-05-31 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Backwoods Witchcraft, Jake Richards offers up a folksy stew of family stories, lore, omens, rituals, and conjure crafts that he learned from his great-grandmother, his grandmother, and his grandfather, a Baptist minister who Jake remembers could "rid someone of a fever with an egg or stop up the blood in a wound." The witchcraft practiced in Appalachia is very much a folk magic of place, a tradition that honors the seen and unseen beings that inhabit the land as well as the soil, roots, and plant life. The materials and tools used in Appalachia witchcraft are readily available from the land. This "grounded approach" will be of keen interest to witches and conjure folk regardless of where they live. Readers will be guided in how to build relationships with the spirits and other beings that dwell around them and how to use the materials and tools that are readily available on the land where one lives. This book also provides instructions on how to create a working space and altar and make conjure oils and powders. A wide array of tried-and-true formulas are also offered for creating wealth, protecting one from gossip, spiritual cleansing, and more.

Book excerpt: From the land of the Bluegrass and the Rhododendron.The time is the 1960's. Traversing the winding gravel roads of Clay County, Kentucky, one encounters two long-time friends who are as different as day is to night. Caleb Davis is a barrel-stave maker: big, brawny and with a healthy outdoors appearance. His life is an open book to anyone who cares to read it. Nigel Jessup is a moonshine-maker: skinny, pallid and one who avoids sunlight as zealously as a bat. He does most of his work in the dark; in secret. Both have many adventures to relate, and the usually-humorous exchanges reveal much about the culture, politics and family tradition in Appalachia.
