Beschreibung

"Ella Endures takes the reader on a journey back in time to experience the joys and trials of the Greatest Generation. I didn't want to put the book down!" -Laurie Winter, Award-winning Author of the Warriors of the Heart series The strength and perseverance that made American women what they are today is brought to light in an emotional and heart-wrenching tale in Ella Endures, Book 2 of the Daughters of Evolution Series. Sara Dewberry's oldest daughter, Ella, married Dr. John Ellington in the Roaring 20s. Prohibition was a joke and gangsters were rampant. Then, the Great Depression hit. The Ellingtons recovered, but not without scars. Orphanages and poorhouses were stretched to their limits and having a good heart, Ella grew her family to ten. She had children born of her blood and even more who found their way into her heart. World War II left its devastation. Ella's brother was missing in action. Two of her sons enlisted and were at risk. She faced not only the dangers of war but the deadly diseases of tuberculosis and polio, which struck her family hard. Ella had many struggles but fought for her family's survival.
