VINTAGE 28MM WM ? SHEPARD OF THE HILLS MISSOURI OZARKS GOOD LUCK COIN BASED ON A BOOK WRITTEN IN 1907 !Before the lights and the glitz and glamour, a shepherd walked these hills.Weary and spent, the shepherd paused in the Ozark mountains and as he sought healing in the fresh, clean air of the hills, he compiled notes for a novel that would become an incredible impact on the United States.This shepherd, a modest preacher named Harold Bell Wright, began to love the simple, country f...olk of the Ozarks. He especially connected with John and Anna Ross who would become the inspiration for Old Matt and Aunt Mollie Matthews, who play a key role in The Shepherd of the Hills. Wright would often camp outside their homestead, sit on the lookout mentioned in the book, and dream up the story of joy and sorrow, hardship and love, violence and restoration, that would become the first novel to sell one million copies in the United States.
