Opis

In this simple and touching book, Mary Lou Walbridge recounts how she went from girlhood to marriage and emotional maturity. Starting with her happy childhood in Missouri and Arkansas in the years before World War II, she describes the trials of going to college during wartime years, her tragic romance with a Navy pilot, the challenges of dating in the aftermath of the war, and how she eventually chose a husband, faced the trials of the early months of marriage in the midst of a new family, and began life in the post-war generation of married women. Written originally for her children, this little book gives an exceptionally honest view of a romance and the life of a young woman in the era of the Second World War.
