Wanderers & Strangers

The land around Hollow Farm has always had visitors.They come on foot and on horseback, by wagon and by thumb. Drifters, preachers, soldiers, salesmen - strangers who walk in off the road and never quite walk back out. Some leave bones. Some leave warnings. Some leave nothing at all except a feeling that the county is a little heavier than it was before they arrived.Wanderers & Strangers is a collection of thirty-one campfire tales told by Edmund Hollow - a man who knows this ground better than most and trusts it less than anyone. Spanning six centuries of Boyle County history, from the Cherokee who walked these ridges before the first settler ever cut a rut in the mud, to visitors whose stories aren't finished yet, these are the people the land remembers.Some of these are better heard in the light.
