The Folks From Greeley's Mill and Other Maine Stories

A flirtatious veterinarian with shoulders too slippery for burdens; a young woman able to outwork any man on the harvest fields; a toilet cleaner proud of his earthy occupation; a small boy's bewildered first steps toward understanding matters sexual. These are some of the folks from Greeley's Mill, time-lifted from the 1930s. There are elbow- nudging pranksters with their elaborate practical jokes, but there is also helpfulness and a pulling together to make things right.
