Angebote / Angebote:
Those of us growing up in the 1930-1950 era will appreciate Jewel Beck Lansing's experiences as related in My Montana: A History and Memoir, 1930-1950. You needn't have grown up in rural Montana to appreciate them either - many western and mid-west farms and ranches shared the same lifestyle.
No running water, no electricity except by generator, hand-cranked wall telephones and party lines, water wells that needed priming before pumping, country dances. And those WWII years of food/gasoline/rubber/shoe rationing, the theoretical 35 mph national speed limit, collecting magazines, papers, tinfoil, metal for the war effort, candy bar shortages, young men leaving for the armed forces, some never to return.
Difficult days? Yes, but the challenges were met with ingenuity, cooperation, camaraderie and humor.
