Sinopse
Características

Four emotional diaries illuminate trips taken by three family members during the Prosperity Decade of the 1920s; then came the Depression. The Mother travels thousands of miles by rented train within the United States. Yellowstone, she write, brought "wonderment." A Swarthmore coed celebrates her graduation with a Grand Tour of London, Paris, Switzerland, and Italy. A Successful engineer Father visits Berlin, Brussels, and Paris; then takes his first airplane flight across the English Channel. Once the depression has taken over, the engineer will drive his wife in a Chandler auto from Rydal, PA. to Ozona, Texas and to Maimi Beach, Florida, seeking a new source of income. The editor who put this book together was the youngest member of the diary writing family. Now an ages research historian, his memory brings unity and anecdotes to the book, which reveals Life as it was lived by a family long, long, ago.
