Forest in the Wind

Forest in the Wind is Mitch Jayne's classic story of life in the wilderness as told by the wild creatures that live there.
The fox, whose family inhabited these hills and hollows since time out of mind, is comfortable with his upper-class stratum of wild things; he has no natural enemies, unless it is the odd bare-faced new creature who walks always on two legs.

Mitch Jayne is recipient of the Independent Publisher's 2008 Gold Medal Award for Best Mid-West Fiction and the 2008 Missouri Governor's Humanities Book Award for his novel "Fiddler's Ghost", also selected as one of the Best Books of 2007 by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Jayne is the former spokesperson, musician, songwriter and founding member of the bluegrass group the Dillards, aka "The Darling Boys" on the Andy Griffith Show.
