HTML:<b>The international-bestselling winner of the National Book Award and the basis for the Academy Award–winning film directed by John Ford</b><b>.</b><br /> &#160;<br /> Huw Morgan remembers the days when his home valley was prosperous, verdant, and beautiful—before the mines came to town. The youngest son of a respectable mining family in South Wales, he is now the only one left in the valley, and his reminiscences tell the story of a family and a town both defined and ruined by the mines.<br /> &#160;<br /> Huw’s story is both joyful and heartrending—a portrait of a place and a people existing now only in memory.<br /> &#160;<br /> Full of memorable characters, richly crafted language, and surprising humor, <i>How Green Was My Valley</i> is the first of four books chronicling Huw’s life, including the sequels <i>Up into the Singing Mountain, Down Where the Moon is Small</i>, and <i>Green, Green My Valley Now</i>.<br /> &#160;<br /> “The reader emerges from these tense pages strangely aglow with sharing the happiness of the characters&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. The simplicity of the language and its delicately strange flavor give the book added charm.” —<i>Chicago Tribune</i>. 4. 5. 6. 7. Media Type: eBook.
