Reviews
"A sobering, well-considered and engrossing portrait of ordinary life in a tumultuous era." -- Publishers Weekly, "This memoir is an important reminder that urban life is not the only life: it reveals, for instance, that for people living close to their needs and far from the command-posts of the cash economy, a thing like the Great Depression could be largely irrelevant. Frank Mathias respectfully renders small-town history as a worthy piece of something larger: ourselves. America." -- Barbara Kingsolver, "Takes us back to a time and place that live on in the memories of all of us who grew up in small towns and rural America.... I recommend it highly." -- Stephen E. Ambrose, "An insightful look at what the 'Greatest Generation' was like before they fought and won the war.-- Maysville Ledger-Independent" -- Maysville Ledger-Independent, "Vividly recaptures the sights, sounds, smells, and very texture of small-town and rural life in the interwar years." -- Journal of Southern History, "A memoir about the wondrous variety of daily life, even during the Depression years, that shaped the men and women of the era.-- McCormick (SC) Messenger" -- McCormick (SC) Messenger, "A trip down memory lane.
