Über den Autor
The author and his family were the innkeepers at Prospect Hill from 1977 until 2007 and continued the operation much as the Overtons did in the prior century. Guests were served meals family style and the inn was much as it had been. After they sold Prospect Hill to Dr. Bobby and Laura Findley and their children, they have operated the inn in the same manner.
