From the back cover: First published in 1907, The Shepherd of the Hills is a best seller and remains today the 4th most widely read book in publishing history. In years past it was required classroom reading. During the 20th century it has been the second most popular book sold in America, after the Holy Bible. This book was written by acclaimed novelist Harold Bell Wright. It was his second publication and undeniably his most famous work. Set in the rugged Ozark Mountains during the late 1800's, the complicated lives of simple mountain folk are played out in a beautiful tale of love, hate and ultimately forgiveness. A timeless story with a moral message that is is as relevant today as it was in yesteryear. It was The Shepherd of the Hills that made Branson, Missouri the tourist destination that it is today. People from all over came to the Ozarks to see where this story took place. The book was so popular that it was produced into a full length feature movie four times!
