Prayers for Sale by Sandra Dallas

High in the Colorado mountains is the small mining town of Middle Swan.  Eighty-six year old Hennie has lived there since just after the Civil War.  She is the keeper of the community's history which she shares in number of humorous and touching stories.  Her own story is both tragic and brave with just a touch of mystery.  Dallas's folksy style is perfect for this depression era tale of strong women, quilting, mining and the value of community.
