This is the first of three fictional books for children, based on the author's historical research, familiarity with the region, and imagined young protagonist. Will Ryan, in the spring of 1933, learns he must share his beloved Ascutney Mountain with the young men of the 129th Company of the Civilian Conservation Corps. This invasion turns out, through many adventures, to benefit both Will and his new CCC friends. The book includes historic photos of the camp, road building, and the terrain.
