The Shoebox : Growing Up With America In The Babyboom South

In this family saga spanning four generations, a Southern woman tells a family story that is in many ways America's story from the 1940s to the present. Served up in bits and pieces, the puzzle parts gradually come together to form a convincing picture of who we are and how we got here. The picture which emerges is of a colorful cast of characters, heroic at times, not so admirable at others, but always lovable. Morgan Blake and his wife Elizabeth dance to an exciting and frightening rhythm, but despite all the uncertainty, they do what every other postwar couple is doing: they have babies. Four girls and a boy: a lot of mouths to feed and a lot of adventures along the way.Shoebox is a story of a family growing up, and of America growing up. Anyone who was part of this optimistic yet turbulent "babyboom" era, or is just curious, will enjoy time spent in The Shoebox.
