Great for research! This biographical book features resource material for anyone seeking to understand the plight of women in the 1940s.



The author highlights the life of his stepfather, Herman, a shy WWII veteran who responds to the personal ad of a New York pianist with four children. In 1949, Barbara moves to his rural Minnesota farm with her young children, including the author.


Part II of this short book includes a rare 52-page Lonely Hearts Catalogue from 1945. This book is a great resource for those researching family history and would make an intriguing text for Women's Studies programs.


The Chickenhouse Chronicles is a series of cross-genre, standalone books that do not need to be read in any order.
