Now she has unpacked and worked them into a story that is not only trustworthy and useful...but is also polished by real, rare happiness....[A] very good book, indeed. In fact, it is averyveryverygoodbook." Publisher's noteAn evocative memoir of growing up in the heart of the Midwest during the Great Depression describes life on her grandparents' Iowa farm, a time of endless work, resourcefulness, no tolerance for idleness or waste, family, and kinship, in a volume that includes recipes and how-to's for everything from no-fail wart-removal spells to skinning a rabbit. Reprint. 60,000 first printing. AnnotationMildred Kalish's memoir about growing up on a farm in Iowa during the Great Depression does not have any sexual abuse, rare disease, loveable dog, or even a dust bowl. There's nothing sensational about Kalish's life, her grandparents; hard-working ethos, or the family farm, but Kalish's writing is nothing short of wonderful. She captures the pleasures of work and play beneath the Iowa sky with an affection and precision reminiscent of Annie Dillard.
