But Ida Mae had what a lot of folks don't have nowadays---survival skills. She took what life meted out and turned it into something good. But the saddest part to me is, she loved so freely yet died alone... Ida Mae is worth every penny I spent for it. I loved it!" ~Sydney Molare - sydneymolare.com

Blurb - The name Ozark comes from the French Aux Arcs. The town of Ozark may have gotten its name because it is at the bend of the creek. Today the term Ozark refers to the large upland region that covers parts of Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Kansas. Ozark, Missouri is nestled in the hills of this region and serves as the county seat of Christian County. This book looks at Ozark's 150-year history, using vintage photographs from the Pegram Collection to capture the spirit of the town and surrounding areas. Ozark has long prided itself on its hospitality, and that is evident here in the images of people, events, schools, railroads, and more that have made Ozark the warm and friendly town it is today.
