Description

Turning BonesFarmers and pragmatists, hardworking people who made their way west from Kentucky through Ohio and Indiana to settle at last in southern Illinois, Lee Martin's ancestors left no diaries or journals or letters; apart from the birth certificates and gravestones that marked their comings and goings, they left little written record of their lives. So when Lee, the last living Martin, inherited his great grandfather's eighty acres and needed to know what

Farmers and pragmatists, hardworking people who made their way west from Kentucky through Ohio and Indiana to settle at last in southern Illinois, Lee Martin's ancestors left no diaries or journals or letters; apart from the birth certificates and gravestones that marked their comings and goings, they left little written record of their lives. So when Lee, the last living Martin, inherited his great-grandfather's eighty acres and needed to know what had brought his family to this pass and this point, he had only the barest of public records--and the stirrings of his imagination--to connect him to his past, and to his beginnings. Turning Bones is the remarkable story brought to life by this collaboration of personal history and fiction. It is the moving account of a family's migration over two hundred years and through six generations, imagined, reconstructed, and made to speak to the author, and to readers, of a lost world. A recovery of the missing, Turning Bones is also one man's story of love and compromise as he separates himself from his family's agrarian history, fully knowing by book's end what such a journey has cost.

It serves it's purpose!!

Product really works well & serves it's purpose! Great height & width. It's flimsy, but it will stand still when put in place.

Zero stars
Size: 1 Panel, Color: Black
The bars are impossible to screw in all the way so it’s not sturdy at all, trash and waste of time

Great product, sturdy and well made. Easy assembly.
Size: 3 Panel, Color: Beige
These are awesome! They were easy to assemble. They are lightweight and easy to move. I was able to easily put all 6 pieces -(I ordered two sets)-into the back of my SUV at once, by myself (and I'm a short, older lady). Quality material. Very sturdy and steady. The first set I opened was a used one and did not include instructions, but it was still very easy to assemble and figure out. I recommend using a battery powered screwdriver. With that, the assembly of all 6 panels took less than 45 minutes.

Love it, happy with the price
Size: 1 Panel, Color: Black
I have been using this product for a month now. I'm absolutely thrilled with my new Room Divider. It's has made a significant difference in my home. The divider is not only stylish and well-crafted but also incredibly functional. It has effectively separated my open space into cozy, distinct areas, enhancing privacy. Assembly was a breeze, and it's built to last. This room divider has truly transformed my living space, and I couldn't be happier.
