Book Description
Soldier Kim Tussie's death brings his widow, Aunt Vittie, $10,000 in insurance money, which Grandpa and Grandma promptly help her spend. Through the eyes of innocent young Sid Tussie, we see what happens when a poor mountain clan comes into sudden wealth.

Here is high comedy, as forty-six Tussies pack themselves into their new "mansion" and proceed to live the good life.
