The Reclaimers by Margaret McCarter is about Aunt Jerry and Uncle Darbie and their lives on the beautiful and famous rural estate of Eden. Excerpt: "Only the good little snakes were permitted to enter the "Eden" that belonged to Aunt Jerry and Uncle Cornie Darby. "Eden, " it should be explained, was the country estate of Mrs. Jerusha Darby—a wealthy Philadelphian—and her husband, Cornelius Darby, a relative by marriage, so to speak, whose sole business on earth was to guard his wife's wealth for six hours of the day in the city, and to practice discus-throwing out at "Eden" for two hours every evening.
