Description
Barefoot, a memoir and sequel to Road to Mound Grove, continues the story of Betty Jean and her family in rural southeastern Oklahoma as they deal with the struggles of life during the Depression and benefits of Roosevelts New Deal leading up to World War II. Betty Jeans family and neighbors lacked the modern conveniences that town folk enjoyed. Some neighbors had water wells in their yards, but Betty Jean and her sister, Olaree, still had to carry water from a spring in the woods. They find themselves living in a chicken house, electricity illuminating the countryside, and a hunting tragedy shakes the community.
