Personal Reflections on Life in the Ozarks-Part 2 is a curated collection of 53 articles from Lonnie Whitaker's award-winning newspaper column in the Howell County News in Willow Springs, Missouri.

Engaging anecdotes and colorful characters from the author's life will transport you to a bygone era in the Missouri Ozarks of the 1950s and 60s.
