The Orphanage By The Lake by Daniel G Miller
The Legendary Aubrey Durrell is a book about a young man who grew up in Empire, Georgia, a small community in central Georgia. While Empire is a real place, it is vastly different from the place described in this book. It is a very small community with no more than 400 residents and one lonely caution light that lets you know you are there. At one time many years ago, Empire had its own school as did other communities such as Union Hill, Roddy, Chester, Chauncey, and other communities about the same size as Empire and it was this thought that what if those communities had developed differently and still had their schools today. This story tells how life would have been through the eyes of Aubrey Durrell, a talented young athlete and musician who loves his hometown and takes the values of hard work, faith, and loyalty to family and friends with him wherever he goes in his life. The story follows the life of Aubrey and his teammates who fight for athletic supremacy with other small communities especially Union Hill, their biggest rival. We follow him through his college career and his marriage to a girl he met in college. Along the way he fell in love with his high school sweetheart who ends up breaking his heart and deals with life's struggles and temptations all while staying true to the values taught by his parents in Empire, Georgia.SKU | CIN1737646390G |
