Sometimes funny, sometimes poignant, and wandering through a 1950's and 60's history of a rural Wisconsin community that revolved around a country store, Life at the Crossroads takes readers down the paths of: coffee table culture in a country store; country school images; kids struggling with redwing blackbirds and the church; fighting communists; neighbors, salesmen and sojourners; life in the tobacco fields; urban renewal and the demise of the country store; hospitality and the search for community. Originating in the same area of Wisconsin that was fodder for Ben Logan's work, The Land Remembers, Felde's reflections from a country store provide a slice of Americana from a later generation and continue to explore the subtle richness of rural communities.
