Editorial Reviews
Syndicated columnist James Kilpatrick
A beautiful work of the storyteller's art. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
IN THIS SEQUEL TO Run With the Horsemen, The redoubtable Porter Osborne, Jr., a little older and slightly more worldly, leaves the dusty security of his rural Georgia home for college. The year is 1938, but the story is timeless. Porter leaves the dusty security of his rural Georgia home--armed with the self-assurance of having been "Raised Right"--and goes off to Willingham University. Neither Porter nor the university will ever be the same again. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
