Enjoy the bygone days of a time precariously nestled between the
comforts of peace and the ever-present threat of impending war in
1939. Meander the dirt roads converging at the general store, where
tall tales flow freely. A young parson from the Northeast arrives
and receives an education from the mountaineers far beyond his
"preacher schooling." The unsolicited courtin' assistance pushes
his patience to the limits. Laugh with six brothers as they
unconventionally live balancing compassion with tomfoolery; gaiety
with grief; all while holding fast to a simple yet steadfast
faith.
A new resident arrives, not fitting the mold of a Greenbed
woman; she clings to high fashion and longs for the social life she
enjoyed in the big city. Her actions and attitudes alienate the
residents from her husband's struggling store until she is forced
to put her life into the hands of the most unlikely character in
the mountain.
The war touched the mountain community in a shocking manner
they'd never imagined possible.
