Trade Paperback. Zustand: Fine. Brand new from publisher. 2018 Trade Paperback. 115 pp. "Before They Were Our Mothers was conceived when editor Patricia A. Nugent realized, at her mother's funeral, that she knew very little about her mother's life before her mother was her mother. She'd never asked; her mother had never offered.… Nugent deeply regretted missing the opportunity to know her mother better. But that window had closed. To help others avoid similar remorse, she compiled this anthology of real-life stories about women before they were mothers. In addition to deeply evocative first-person accounts, Before They Were Our Mothers offers readers a personal history of world events from the late 1800s to the mid-1900s, as written in the present moment by current-day descendants: Joyce Hunt Bouyea; Carol R. Daggs; Ginny Riedman-Dangler; Constance A. Dodge; Cathy Fedoruk; Nadia Ghent; Zoe Ann; Christensen Gonza; Crystal S. Hamelink; Rachael Z. Ikins; Donna Jackel; Catherine Ruggiero Lanci; Christy O'Callaghan; Josephine Pasciullo; Barbara J. Spaeth; and Sue Sweet Van Hook. Universal themes weave delicate threads through these disparate women's lives. Well-meaning parents making questionable decisions; arranged marriages; the desire for education and a career; unplanned pregnancies; the centrality of faith and religion; the need for family and affirmation; medical advances; the brutality of war; and the crippling effects of poverty, prejudice, and discrimination. Themes not so different from circumstances in our lives today. You won't forget the women in these stories; you won't want to. And they may inspire you to tell your children your stories - before you were their parent.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Grandparents will relive their high school years and share them with their teenage grandchildren as they read this compelling coming-of-age story from the 1950s.Tim Holcomb, Mark Easton, and the Fisher twins have been pals all through grade school. They are together so much that once at a scho…ol picnic, someone in fun called them "The Four Wheels." The boys liked it, and when they enrolled at Wilson High, it seemed a capital idea to launch themselves into high school as the Four Wheels. They think of themselves as a four-wheeled buggy. Still, this allusion didn't precisely fit because a carriage requires a horse. The boys have no intention of ever adding a fifth to their group. They like being exclusively four. Unanimously they agree, early in their freshman year, that high school is a bore. "Action is what this school needs. And we'll provide some!" Impressed with their own importance they march through their freshman year. When a newcomer joins the football team which hasn't won a game for a year, they begrudgingly realize he can boost their chances at winning. However, things fall apart as the Four Wheels find other interests than sports and they ride the rollercoaster of their teen years growing apart only to learn the lessons of teamwork. As they each find their own goals, winning becomes possible. FOUR WHEELS: A 1950s teen-age saga is an effort to contribute a piece of literature which presents sports and music as contingent parts of human experience and assigns to teachers and parents the privileged and rewarding role they occupy in the lives of their young people as they come of age. It may also help today's youth better understand that their grandparents and parents were once teenagers. This item is printed on demand.
