Produktbeschreibung
Four generations of women collaborated on this book project which features a collection of typewritten memories that have sat unpublished on a shelf for nearly three decades. At long last, family members (and anyone who loves tales of the American experience) can enjoy Mable Elizabeth Gates' original manuscript, which has been lovingly combined with family photos and illustrations.Remembering Lela & Charlie takes readers on a journey back to simpler times in 20th century rural Mississippi before microwave ovens and the internet, when country doctors made house calls, and a plate of home-baked biscuits awaited any hungry visitor. Mrs. Gates' evocative narrative from the life and times of her parents, Lela & Charlie Myrick, reveals both difficult periods and times of great joy and reminds us of what's most important-family and community.
