The stories that you describe remind me of some of the wild accounts that I've heard from my older family members. Things have definitely changed since they were growing up. I'll probably give this a read!
Thank you so much! I felt the same way - I could hear some of my older family members telling similar stories in my head as I read this book. Sometimes I wonder just how much of those stories is real, and how much is..."embellished".

Thanks for stopping by!

The elders definitely have some insight into life that younger generations never will. This sounds like a book that would make me reminisce about times gone by.
I do wish we had more insight into how things used to be. It's hard to imagine that things weren't always how they are now, and the perspective is valuable, I believe. Thank you for stopping by!
