Shadow on a Weary Land

The narrator of "Shadow on a Weary Land" imagines the many lives that have been lived over the years on Brown's Ridge - from the teeming wildlife that once roamed the land to Jesse and Frank James, who settled there, to the farmers recently pushed out by the imminent rise of a housing development. These ghosts from the past haunt the narrator and his friends, a group of misfits who realize that their hardscrabble lives are intimately tied to a vanishing place.
