The Keeper Of The Vineyard: A Tale Of The Ozarks is a novel written by Caroline Abbot Stanley and originally published in 1913. Set in the Ozark Mountains of Missouri, the story follows the life of a young girl named Mary, who is taken in by her aunt and uncle after the death of her mother. Mary’s uncle is a vineyard owner and she becomes the keeper of the vineyard, learning the skills necessary to maintain the grape vines and produce wine. As Mary grows older, she becomes more and more involved in the vineyard and the community around her. She falls in love with a young man named John, who also works in the vineyard, but their relationship is complicated by their different backgrounds and social classes. Throughout the novel, Mary faces many challenges, including financial struggles, family conflicts, and the threat of prohibition. However, she remains determined to keep the vineyard running and to preserve the traditions of her family and community. The Keeper Of The Vineyard: A Tale Of The Ozarks is a heartwarming story about family, love, and the importance of preserving cultural heritage. It provides a vivid portrayal of life in the Ozarks during the early 20th century and offers insights into the challenges faced by rural communities during a time of great change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
