Very rewarding reading experience
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
Such a delight. While reading this book, so many familiar places in Baton Rouge, LA were mentioned, reminding me of my childhood growing up in Baton Rouge. I felt this book was about a typical family growing together and apart, taking place after World War II, with daily life struggles of a relationship and raising children. It really involves you in each individual's life and you feel as though you really know each individual. Note: this book is the first in a series of four books with the life story of these individuals growing and developing over the years
