A young Jane Eaton tells of the family's adventures of that summer of 1943 - a round up, a cattle auction, and a strange accident at The Dalles Ferry. She tells of the family's sorrowful good-bye to Uncle Robbie as he goes off to war. She tells of 14-year-old cousin Scott who plays practical jokes, reads minds, and learns to drive the wheat truck. Here are strong men - optimistic Dad, grumpy Grandpa, the fiery Red Evans baling hay, and brave "Pops" sailing in the Pacific with the navy. Here is Mother who wanted to be a librarian, but now keeps the ranch books, races to smooth the rocky path for everyone else, and grows a Victory Garden. Here is Ann, high-spirited 12-year-old sister and sidekick. Here is five-year-old Ellie with a voice that flits like a moth, and who names the new bull. Youngest is three-year-old Tom, who gathers up scrap metal for the war and chases cows with his stick. Summer on the Sun-Up is a story set in Klickitat County in the State of Washington.
