“The rooms shown in this volume are glimpses into the past. They reflect the aspirations of their owners to present a public face and to care for their most precious treasures — their families. In several ways, these historical families are just like ours today. Our homes are an extension of ourselves, of who we believe we are or who we wish others to think us to be.”

“If I had to make a comparison, I would compare Susan Gregg Gilmore to Fannie Flagg, but Gilmore more than holds her own. This is an unusually engaging novel by a very fine writer who knows exactly what she is doing.”

“Author Gary Slaughter’s previous books Cottonwood Summer and Cottonwood Fall established the identity of the small town of Riverton MI during the mid-1940’s. He’s created in the characters of two 10-year-old boys, Jase and Danny, a vehicle that helps guide readers through the landscape of Riverton during the war years. … Operating with the innocence and resilience of children, the pair always manages to save the day. They also help others in the town find a way to feel grateful despite the many problems and worries that still affect them.”
