About this listen
High up on a mountain, young Clay-Boy Spencer joins his father and eight uncles to hunt the mythical white deer. What he finds on the mountainside changes his life - and marks him for a special destiny. Years later, Clay-Boy is the first in his family to get the chance to go to college; but success as an adult is much more complicated and bittersweet than the legendary success of Clay-Boy’s childhood quest.
A heartwarming novel of love, family, and hope, Spencer’s Mountain inspired the popular television show The Waltons, which starred Richard Thomas, Ralph Waite, and Michael Learned, and ran for nine years between 1972 and 1981. More than 50 years after its publication, this novel still has the power to inspire and move listeners all over the world.

A little old fashioned, but no doubt a classic
Love the southern drawl of the narrator. Classic book, can't wait to check out the Henry Fonda movie.

Refreshing old-time American country family life.
Well worth the listen. Although initially I wasn't inclined to listen to this book, once I began I enjoyed being reminded of the long-gone closeness & drama of a large family. The simplicity of it was both intriguing & refreshing.

A glimpse into the late 1800s
Loved this warm, slow paced novel. I got so invested in all the characters. The narrator also did a wonderful job! Highly recommend this book.
