Synopsis
The author and his wife bought a rundown Virginian farm in 1971. In this book, he traces the history of the property, based on research and stories from local residents and excerpts from old letters. Life over a quarter of a century is told, including Indian attacks and the American Civil War., In the tradition of Wendell Berry and John McPhee, Donald McCaig wites with a powerful sense of place, and of history of Virginia's Highland County, in An American Homeplace. On the fast track in the New York advertising world, McCaig gave it all up to move to a ramshackle farm in Virginia's upper Cowpasture River Valley. Enhanced by the author's evident love for his land and for the stories it has to tell, An American Homeplace is an inviting combination of personal memoir and narrative history.
