Brian Hardman of the University of the Ozarks says, “The Literature of the Ozarks is an inspired collection that manages, like an Ozark river, to be both broad and deep in its scope. The anthology moves in chronological and thematic order and offers a range of known and not-so-well-known writers. From the backwoods rambles of Henry Rowe Schoolcraft to the contemporary world of Daniel Woodrell, readers will be absorbed in the history of the Ozark Mountains and captivated by the voices and visions of the writers collected here.”
On Sunday afternoon, Oct. 20, at 2, Dr. Brooks Blevins will present his published work “A History of the Ozarks, Volume 2: The Conflicted Ozarks.”
