    About this ebook

    The Story of Wool by Sara Ware Bassett is about a wool merchant and his son who move to Idaho to learn more about the industry of sheep ranching. Excerpt: "Donald Clark glanced up from his Latin grammar and watched his father as he tore open the envelope of a telegram and ran his eye over its contents. Evidently, the message was puzzling. Again Mr. Clark read it. Donald wondered what it could be. All the afternoon the yellow envelope had been on the table, and more than once his mind had wandered from the lessons he was preparing to speculate on the possible tidings wrapped up in that sealed packet."

Spending her summers on the Cape she developed a familiarity with and warmth for the local inhabitants. She wrote at least forty popular novels based on her experiences on the Cape, mostly set in and around the fictional villages of Belleport and Wilton and sharing a common cast of characters.
