About this product
Product Information
The wisdom of the upper Midwest is found in the minds and hearts of the people who live there. Wisdom is expressed in the stories that people tell of earlier days and earlier times. Stories of happiness and hard work. Stories of hardship and joy. As rural people tell their stories, remember these tales, for in these stories are the values and beliefs that have been passed on from generation to generation, and make the upper Midwest what it is today. Some bits of country wisdom: -The two most important things we can give our children are roots as deep as a giant oak's, and wings as strong as an eagle's. -Work is never done, so take time to play. -Living to accumulate money is not living. -When you hear the flocks of migrating Canada geese each spring and fall, look upward. See the grace and beauty, cooperation and respect. Noted author Jerry Apps collected these oft spoken phrases, observations, comments, and conundrums. Together with photographs by his son, Steve Apps, staff photographer for the ""Wisconsin State Journal,"" the statements lend humorous, touching, unique glimpses into country life in the upper Midwest. About the Author: Apps is also the author of Voyageur Press's ""Every Farm Tells a Story,"" ""Country Ways and Country Days,"" ""Humor from the Country,"" and ""When Chores Were Done."" His father, Herman Apps, is shown on the front cover.

This transaction gets a positive rating reluctantly. The CD plays perfectly, but the case is severely cracked. The seller's description indicated that the case was cracked, but I suspect that it sustained further damage because of inadequate packaging. A CD should not be shipped in a soft plastic mailer, even if it has interior bubble wrap, without additional protection, such as taping a piece of cardboard to the front and back of the CD.
