Opis

Take a step back in time, to Newark, New Jersey in 1919, Emma Dickinson's 25th year. Six years prior, her mother, Anna (Robinson) Dickinson, had died and Emma was left to fill the role of mother-figure to her young brothers and sisters. It was the year Prohibition went into effect, women were given the right to vote, and the American troops returned after the Armistice was signed, marking the end of World War I, all events she mentions in her diary. She had soldier pen pals in France and Belgium and a deep respect for men in uniform. Her father, Harry Dickinson, was a Steelworker and Union President at the time of The Steel Strike of 1919, a significant event in the family's life and to the entire country. Non-fiction.
