Passing through Perfect - Bette Lee Crosby - Bog

It's 1946, the war is over and millions of American soldiers are coming home. Benjamin Church is one of them. After four years of being away he thought things in Alabama would have changed but they haven't. Grinder's Corner is as it's always been--a hardscrabble burp in the road. It's not much but it's home. When Benjamin attends a harvest festival in Twin Pines, he catches sight of Delia. Before their first dance ends, he knows for certain she's the one. They fall madly in love. It doesn't matter that her daddy is staunchly opposed to the thought of his daughter marrying a cotton farmer, never mind a poor one. Benjamin considers himself a lucky man until the fateful night that changes everything.
