Journey to the West by Wen Zhang
She Wears It for Her Loved One, Oh So Far Away opens at the Groner mailbox shortly after America's entry into World War One. Amid the turmoil of daily life, twelve-year-old Edith continues with high school while her loved one Harold faces life or death from LaGrippe in Kansas. Four other of the Leadford area girls have a loved one in peril by shellfire in France. Amid the turmoil of daily life, Villains taint the home front with robbery and deceit in response to newly instated prohibition. Also, cancer plies its ugly path of devastation. Humor mellows the pages via the person and antics of Charley James, Deadwood Dick, and their cohorts, this in contrast to tragedy amid the Allen and Coffee families. Mohican friends become beekeepers while Grandpa and pals enjoy liberty cabbage, French toast, and fish giblet gravy and begin a taxi service with The Outfit children as drivers. Principle figures of the women's suffrage, women's rights, and prohibition are represented by host of colorful characters. Miss Patriotism shares honors with Mr. and Mrs. Uncle Sam in bringing to life the stories of yellow ribbon, Old Glory, and The Star Spangled Banner. The story is fiction set into real history. The book was written in honor of the author's grandfather, Clarence Groner, and the author's mother, Edith Marie Groner Platt. The geography used in the books is similar to that of the community in Michigan where Clarence Groner and Edith Marie Groner Platt and T. F. Platt, and others of the Groner and Platt families, resided through much of their lives. Clarence and Edith for a time lived on a road called Jericho Road and Clarence worked briefly in a paper mill nearby. She Wears It for Her Loved One, Oh So Far Away draws to dramatic conclusion involving a showdown on the emerald esplanade just as the northbound signals the Leadford station. She Wears It for Her Loved One, Oh So Far Away is the sixth of the Jericho Books by T. F. Platt. The Jericho stories are inten| SKU | Unavailable |
