The story is set in rural Michigan early in the twentieth century and opens in the spring soon after Edith's second birthday. Papa Clarence and Edith are in the snowy yard to feed the birds. Momma Clydis is in the kitchen beginning an arduous day. Old Sniffer lies in a shed nearby with Tawny and her five pups, the dogs to add humor and nuisance throughout the tale. It soon develops that pastoral serenity is marred by troubles far and beyond the frisky dogs. Something real deep troubles Momma. Family and friends pitch in, coping with episodes of terror and of distance she displays. A mysterious white oak dresser is paramount to resolving her plight. The story is flavored by colorful, often humorous characters sharing situations of suspense, romance, glee, terror, tragedy, passion, woe, and triumph as the families cope with Clydis' problem coupled with home reconstruction, timber harvesting, Indian affairs, child birth, horse run-a-ways, and the five rambunctious pups. Electrification comes into home and community spawning industry not unlike a gold rush. The town installs sewer and main and some of the Nation's first concrete streets as the theme of a Summer Festival, that event clouded by moonshine. County fairs play a role in the characters' lives, serving to enlighten, threaten, amuse, amaze, and fulfill the aspirations of Indian, farmer, homemaker, and child. Meanwhile at the swinery rapist and killer are vying. Family and friends stick with the Groner family. Finally, a peach cobbler serves symbolically as a new beginning for Clydis. I've Baked a Fresh Cobbler is the third of the Jericho Books by T. F. Platt. The Jericho stories are intended for adults and young adults. The tales do not include explicit sex and they omit profanity.
