Wonderful Gift for Anyone including Yourself
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
"When my Grandmother was a Child" is a delightful book to give to anyone for their Birthday, Christmas, or Mother's Day. It's not just for women. The book shows how the culture and living conditions in the United States were in the late 1800's and early 1900's. It also contains some historical facts, not only in the United States but worldwide, so the reader can relate these events to their grandmother's life. As a genealogist, the book sheds some light on my ancestors and the reasons they did things the way they did. The reason my grandmother gets so concerned over my catching cold or the flu is because of the lack of medicine she had as a child; people died from colds and the flu. The only disappointment was the size; I wanted more facts than it gave. I would recommend this book as a coffee table/night stand book.
