Inhaltsangabe

This collection of poems shines a brilliant light on the story of James and Anna Millikin, their life in Decatur, Illinois, and their legacy, which began in the latter part of the 19th century.

From the delicate, happy, moments of marriage to the sorrow of never having children, to the triumphs in careers, art, and philanthropy, these poems engage the senses and awaken the heart. With a mix of history and imagination, Lybarger allows the reader to escape to a time when a young city was still finding out what it might one day become.

Step back to 1876, when the Millikins first moved into this beautiful mansion on North Pine Street, in Decatur, Illinois. You will not regret the trip,-and you may, just may, not want to come back.
