Various folk who enjoyed reading "The Hills That Beckon" questioned the author, "When are you going to write a sequel?" After much consideration Mr. Long decided to comply with their requests. His first narrative was confined to the Poosey Ridge area of Madison County, Kentucky.The sequel goes "beyond" the borders written about in the first book and includes other areas hence, the title "Beyond The Hills That Beckon." This writing differs by focusing on other families and events in the region rather than only the authors family. The reader will be reintroduced to the Poosey Ridge location from a perspective not addressed in "The Hills That Beckon."
