When Willa and Worthy Gilberson's 14 year old beautiful, sensitive and intelligent daughter dies in childbirth, they raise their illegitimate grand son Cappy, providing love and solid values.
Set in the time frame of 1925-WWII, life in Kane, Illinois is anything but idyllic. The town near do well attempts to claim Cappy as his own, menacing both the grandparents and then later the child.
The town contains many solid, well respecting individuals peppered with a smattering of some nasty, evil yokels with plenty of time and intent to do harm.
The book contains humor, sadness, folksiness, and a wonderful portrayal of love that endures. (
