Description

The author's account of early childhood life on a red dirt farm in Chambers County in East Central Alabama presents the struggles and victories of her parents in successfully raising five children in the 1920's and 1930's. Their solid integrity and robust faith in God brought to completion the first 18 years of their five children, all of whom were born during the 1920's. The role of faith in God, faith in family, and church and education were emphasized to the utmost in all of its ruggedness and cussedness of hard times and good times and fun times. A value system was instilled that could not be destroyed.
