Description: This true story covers a time period from just shortly after the Civil War, until the mid twentieth century. Two Hitchner families leave their farms in rural Salem County, NJ, and travel to the booming anthracite fields of northeastern Pennsylvania. One family continues on into the wild frontier area of the Endless Mountains and vast unharvested forest of Hemlock trees. Soon the two families unite and start baking cookies and crackers for the hungry miners and lumbermen. Before long, their biscuits and cakes are being distributed in 43 states and beyond. The reader is taken on a journey of small town life with numerous photos and illustrations, many never before seen.
