Party Lines, Prayers, And Privies

Historical novel between 1875-2003 based on the author's great-grandmother, grandmother, and mother. Sarah lost her mother at age eight and was hired out as a farm hand. She later birthed fourteen children. Her daughter Esther was injured by a drunk driver before Helen's birth, resulting in her right side being spastic and contractured.

Readers will find their stories enlightening, worthy, and empowering, prompting their own long-forgotten family memories and oft-told stories.
