Klappentext

These autobiographical essays tell us what was special about the rural Americans of the Great Depression and World War II-about their resourcefulness, humor, and love of the land. How with a minimum of technology, in a subsistence economy, they achieved a life-style and a stature in the eyes of their children that we envy today.
