Farnum Street: Anecdotes from the Depression - Faith Gaudet - Bog

Bag om Farnum Street: Anecdotes from the Depression

Go back to a time of innocence and read about this Canadian French family that lived through the Great Depression with too many kids and an alcoholic father. Meet Memere Larose who helped to keep the family fed and told fortunes by tea leaves. Read of the humor and practical jokes that were sustaining factors in their survival. Picture some of the characters that were part of the ''Society'' in the little town of Blackstone, i.e.: Lukie and Billy C., along with some of the events that took place, such as the Horribles Parade and the ''Bonfires'' on the night before the Fourth of July. You are sure to have a laugh or two and perhaps shed a tear, but you will most likely remember this book for awhile.
