Description

Gentle, homespun humor & philosophy. A critically acclaimed collection of columns that first appeared in a Black Hills publication. The author's everyday life takes place in what to most of us is an exotic setting, a ranch in northeastern Wyoming, almost 100 miles from the nearest grocery store. Ritthaler's readers listen in on an articulate, skilled member of the community calling her neighbor's attention to matters too familiar to receive the recognition - or reverence - they deserve. Yeats pointed out, the local, observed closely enough, is universal. (BOOKLIST). "A great book, a fine work." (Baxter Black). "A delicately passionate work that opens the shutters of the soul." (W. Michael & Kathleen O'Neal Gear, authors of People of the Wolf & People of the Fire). The Ginger Jar contains slices of life, inspiration, & glimpses of life in a place where neighbors are not necessarily next door, & where affection for one's family is still a matter for open expression. A sincere, close look at life with a sense of humor & understanding. It would be a shame to miss the pleasures that are contained in this delightful little book. (TEMPEST MAGAZINE).
