| Book: Bushwhackers, Visions, Star-Crossed Lovers
by Frankie Carlin Meyer
It contains over 200 true stories, over 200 photographs, and 22 maps.
It is about Ozark history and culture as seen through the eyes of
settlers. Most of the stories center around McDonald County, Barry
County, and Newton County, with several stories that also pertain to
adjacent counties such as Benton, Washington, and Carroll counties in
Arkansas. The book starts with
the earliest settlers who entered the Ozarks through St. Charles and
St. Louis. It then tells about the trails they took and their
experiences as they traveled south to Southwest Missouri and Northwest
Arkansas. The rest of the book tells about the lives of the settlers.

I grew up on a farm on Carlin Ridge, located in the Success Community between Rocky Comfort and Powell in the northeastern area of McDonald County. Carlin Ridge is about 4 miles southeast of Longview, and about seven miles south of Stella (located Newton County). If you need more information, let me know. Frankie Carlin Meyer.
