Summary: An excellent read
Comment: Sharyn McCrumbs books convey the character and spirit of Appalachia in a beautiful way. Her descriptions of the land and the people make you long to know more. This book is no exception. In this story a distant family comes together as their father lays dying. Ms McCrumb portrays her characters personalities so vividly you feel that you are reading about your hometown and the people in it and you really come to care about the characters and the area in which they live. I hope she continues to write her Ballad series and allows us the privilege of getting to know people such as Sheriff Spencer Arrowood and Nora Bonesteel better.

Summary: Sharyn wrote it
Comment: If Sharyn McCrumb wrote the book you know it will be great. She is a wonderful author and all of her books are so good. She makes you feel like you are there and that you know the people that you are reading about. From the first to the last page it's got you. Do read this wonderful book.
The father has saved Rosewood so that when he dies his sons will built him a casket. The sons all live in different places and have not seen each other for a while but they all come back to do this for their father.
Excellent book

Summary: Beautifully written and with literary merit.....
Comment: I came across the Rosewood Casket in one of my bookshelves, a first edition I had no memory of buying. Most often drawn to British writers (or Americans who "write British"), I was quickly drawn not only into Sharyn McCrumb's story, but her style and clear indication that she knows English and how to use it to great advantage. She is unpretentious and even her other-worldly concerns are non-intrusive and never offensive. She is a very gifted writer, indeed. I'd regret that I hadn't read her before, but now I get to read EVERYTHING. Now that I've finished the Rosewood Casket, I handed it to my husband, Allan Eckert. We sat across from her last year at the Kentucky Book Fair and I enjoyed her delightful personality very much. Now I can enjoy her wonderful books.
