The Valley Road
by . World, $4.00.
Nostalgic but with undertones of deep affection. The Valley Road is the history of The Homestead. Virginia Hot Springs, and their lovely valley. Written by Fay Ingalls, who has directed The Homestead for twenty years, the personal anecdotes, folklore, and occasional descriptive passages will awaken memories for many a former visitor. The frontier days, the Victorian elegance, the trials of fire, depression, and war are related with a charm and sincerity which could come only from long and intimate association. A book for a selective group of readers, but for them, unusually rewarding.
