Description

Our friend Jason Crockett joins us as we continue our countdown of our top 5 reads in 2024 with our number three book of the year, The Land Breakers by John Ehle. The novel is the opening book of Ehle's 'mountain novel' series of seven books that spans the generations of two families, the Wrights and the Plovers. In The Land Breakers, Mooney Wright and his wife Imy cross into the Appalachian Mountains to begin a life of their own. As Mooney settles in, another family, the Harrisons, move into his cove with the intention of creating the patriarch's own vision of a utopia. The story follows these two families as they learn to live and work together for survival.
