About the Book
In 1945, a Farmall H tractor was taken to West Virginia, and sold to a farmer, Howard Dunkle, who lived on Brushy Mountain in Pendleton County. The tractor was used on the farm, but after many years, was parked in a shed and forgotten. In 2004, another farmer, my husband, Elwood Kile, purchased and restored the Farmall tractor and put it back into use. This is a book with Christian themes of hope and renewal.
