Description
The Perkins farm,stood as a monument to history. Hancock and Adams had fled there from Lexington. The barn where they stabled their horses remained standing in the author's childhood in the 1930s and 1940s. A twentieth-century childhood mixed history with economic depression, wartime, and a mother's depression, as the slow seasons of the past hastened toward the swift changes of the future.Adult-content rating: This book contains content considered unsuitable for young readers 17 and under, and which may be offensive to some readers of all ages.
