Synopsis When Green Leaves Fall by : Jack A. Robey

A MYSTICAL GLIMPSE INTO AMERICA'S PAST. When Green Leaves Fall encompasses the gamut of elements in great classic fiction, from history and suspense to romance, poetry, mythology, and faith. Add to this the author's exceptional character development that brings the people in the novel alive and the breathtaking imagery of the untamed world they discover. The story begins in the summer of 1909, when the sleepy little mill town of Devlin, W.Va., awakens. Best friends, Morgan Darrow and Dewey Baughman, leave boyhood behind in the wild mountain forests as they assist surveyors Lowe Yancy and Black Jack Clark on their expedition for the Watoga Lumber Company. When Lowe first sees the noble giant trees of the Big Timber, he is awed by their creator, and his journey to find peace and absolution in his life takes a new direction. The team faces many obstacles along the way, and learns that subduing the violence of other men is often much easier than conquering that of nature. Adventures of the heart also await them in Devlin, as Morgan and Dewey both fall in love, and Lowe's eyes open to the love he relinquished long ago, but never forgot. Set in the days of post-Civil War West Virginia, When Green Leaves Fall captures life in a small company town, where the company has the power to influence even hopes and dreams. In the tradition of John Steinbeck, Robey's novel explores a unique time and place in America's past through the hearts and voices of his memorable characters, and allows his readers to experience the last of the magnificent uncharted forest that once graced our land. The novel was inspired by the author's great-grandparents, who lived, worked, and raised their family in the small lumber mill town of Nallen, W. Va.
