The story of a poor white woman growing to maturity in the Pre-Civil War rural south. The personal and extended family struggles, and ups and downs of day-to-day living, in the rural culture. The author mastered the ability to express her thoughts with rural charm, naivety, with the vernacular dialect and cultural baiases intact. This novel might be considered as an addition to contemporary Women's Studies courses, as reminder of how far women have progressed in 150 years.
