Book Review: |
|
The reader will be inspired by statements of simple faith from people whose lives have not always been easy. World War II, the depression, farm life before electricity, cars, and good roads portray existence in mid-Missouri in an earlier time. Warmly human anecdotes from the first decades of the last century which will make you think about your own personal story and the story of your family.
