From Harmond Husband's rebellious roots that led him to settle in
and establish the village of Somerset to the Meyers family of maple
fame, Pulling includes images from many of Somerset's treasured
boroughs. As the Lincoln Highway Heritage Corridor wound its way
through central Pennsylvania and coal mining towns like Boswell and
Jerome sprang up across the countryside, Somerset County changed
and evolved with the times. Pulling revives the lost memories of
curiosities like the ?Ship of the Alleghenies? and extols the
virtues of the snowmakers at the Seven Springs resort. She also
recounts the tragic accident at the Quecreek mine that trapped nine
miners for more than three days, and shares the sorrow and mourning
of the community of Shanksville?forever changed on September 11.
Join Sister Pulling as she relives the triumphs and tragedies, the
heroes and headliners of this historic mountain county.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

This book is an introduction to a cocker spaniel called Misty, the
other pets he lived with and his gang of friends. Misty is a loyal
and trusted friend. He is the leader of the pack who controls the
antics of the other animals. He's kind and gentle, but strong and
fair, and the other animals look up to him. This book is about four
adventures Misty has with his friends and family, follow him as he
goes to the park, the seaside, has his birthday party, and visits
the farm. Anne Frances Jackson has a lifelong passion for animals,
their welfare and behaviour. She has had pets all her life, and
feels that a house isn't a home without one. Anne has written
poetry but this is her first story book. The stories use her study
of animal behaviour to bring the fun and joy of these characters to
life. She hopes you enjoy this little book about cheeky animals
with big personalities
