Description

Sparked by a trip 'home' decades later, Paul Jones begins to remember growing up on the Pembina River, just west of Edmonton. The result is Pembina Country -- a gentle but perceptive look at what it was like to grow up on a hard scrabble farm in the 1930s dust bowl. His finely crafted story recreates the delights and hardships of childhood, no matter which town or city you live in.
