Book Reviews

“What an enduring love story! Using primary documents and letters, writer/curator Barbara Hannon allows us vicarious entry into the world of her parents during a time when the rest of the world was on fire. I cried my way through parts of it, recognizing the connections of family, a Midwest location, and a love that would not be tamped down by the constraints and deprivations of WW II.”
– Elizabeth Gatewell, Librarian
