A Mid-Century Childhood began as a modest chronicle for our grandchildren, to acquaint them with the details of daily life when Grandma was growing up. I have written about what we ate, what we wore, how we got to school, what games we played. There are chapters about church and about Christmas and about birthdays. It's a work of anecdotal social history with a large dose of memoir with some help from contemporaries and a diary.
My generation was blessed to grow up in a quieter simpler world. Our parents had lived through two wars and a depression but we children enjoyed a period of peace and prosperity.
