Publisher Description: Three stories recreate the mining of salt in Grand Saline, an actual place in East Texas, at the time of the Caddo Indians, during the mid-1800s, and now. A teacher of art and special education, Maribeth Darby raised three sons in Grand Saline before she wrote and illustrated a book about the people who lived over one of the largest and purest salt domes on the American continent. |
