摘要:
Depression and drought did not make it easy for a large family on a small South Texas farm in the mid-twentieth century. Lawrence Zook tried cotton, corn, peanuts, even black-eyed peas on his 100 sandy acres near Floresville. His family survived, though he tended to be disagreeable when it didn't rain--which seemed to be most of the time. Lois Zook Wauson, the oldest of Lawrence and Bertie Lee's eight children, does not flinch from reporting the difficult aspects of this life, which casts into greater relief her telling of everyday pleasures and triumphs.
