Cledith Cassidy Tolbert

Opis

This little book of remembrances from the childhood of the Cassidy family during the early decades of the last century brings to light happy and carefree times mixed with real life challenges of the era. There are stories of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins that go back before the turn of the century. Cledith brings the reader into the lives and times of the family and the community in vivid detail with a warmth and charm that is both funny and poignant. You are taken into the do-not-touch Victorian parlor of one stern grandmother and on to the little cabin of other grandparents where hymns were sung in the evening and grandchildren felt cherished. The touching life of this family from temporary residence in South Carolina to the home in West Baden is a true family saga that is timeless in its perspective.
