Description

The Homecoming 1970 Novel about Spencers Mountain book Earl Hamner Jr

It’s Christmas Eve, 1933, on Spencer’s mountain and Olivia Spencer along with her eight “thoroughbred” children, anxiously await their father’s homecoming. With old man Winter wreaking one of his best, life goes on despite the trials and tribulations of life during the Great Depression, not to mention their apprehension that shakes each of them to the core, especially Olivia.

“The Homecoming” is a heartwarming story about that Christmas Eve day on Spencer Mountain that welcomes us into their daily lives; the chores, the childhood rivalry, the festive preparations including a harrowing encounter with an aggressive buck who’s determined but thankfully fails to attack Clay-boy while he’s searching for that perfect Christmas tree, the quest for the patriarch Clay, and finally a Christmas miracle at midnight. What the family didn’t expect was the real miracle that followed.

Originally published in 1970 by Earl Hamner, Jr., CBS realized its potential and produced and aired the movie in 1971, not only with subtle changes to character’s names but launching a franchise that America would come to know and love as the “The Waltons.”
