Book on Chickens, The

From the studio of Lowell Davis comes the enchanting story of Big Jack, Goldie, and the other residents of a real farm in southwest Missouri. Sprinkled with bits of farm lore and humour, the story of Big Jack and Goldie’s romance, courtship, and marriage preserves the values of a simpler time – a way of life that many of us remember and long for. But The Book on Chickens is more than just a farm tale. It is a full-colour collection of artwork by one of the world’s most famous folk and collectibles artists, Lowell Davis. His reputation as a sculptor and painter has earned him numerous accolades – especially for his works of chickens. His art, characters, setting, and story all create a magical world of yesterday, much like Davis’s own self-created world of his 1930s-era farm in the Ozarks.
