Viroqua, WI Author Publishes Book about Rural Life in America

Rural Story Book: Memories and Fabrications, a new book by Lance J. Clough, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Going fishing with your brother, a one-room schoolhouse, building a fort in a woodpile, picking berries as a family, and little Jay repeatedly falling in the lake, these entertaining stories reflect the rural environment in which author Lance J. Clough was raised. Rural Story Book: Memories and Fabrications helps readers see the freedom and closeness rural living provided in the 1950s. Some accounts are unique to that era. Others tell of activities and adventures two brothers find as they interact with others and their early life settings. In the author's words, "The 'new jeans' story actually happened and I still have trouble believing we actually did that stuff!"
