Seller's Description:
Very good. Signed by author. Inscribed on t-p. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Glued binding. 226, [1] p. Illustrations. This work started out as a series of vignettes written for the author's five grandchildren. She was married for 45 years to renown photo--journalist and artist Bob Jones--who had spent part of WWII in the China, India, Burma theater. A lot of their life together was spent in Weston, Connecticut. Later she resided in Chatham, Massachusetts. This compilation is a slice of 20th century Americana unlike any other.
