A tale of research comes to life in the form of a story that began more than a century ago. As the storyteller, the author has cast her Aunt Dot as a quiet rebel and a very strong woman. In the depths of the Depression, she worked to save money and follow her older brothers to Carthage College. After two years she succumbed to the cultural ideal of the era and gave up college for marriage. She became a wife with several titles -- wife-in-waiting, minister's wife, housewife, and war wife.
