About this audiobook
This is a kind of history, or at least remembrances. It’s primarily personal but overall takes a look at the way things were many, many decades ago. Details may get a little out of whack from a chronological order now and then, but the gist of the way things in some desperate personal and national times will be fairly well put in place. It begins a trifle before the outset of the 1929 stock market crash that led to the Great Depression. Then, it points to the difficulties, financial and otherwise, that confronted individuals and the beleaguered nation overall. You or your preceding family will remember some, from either experiencing it personally or hearing about it from those who came before. What was it like growing up back then? Listen and find out.
Author/narrator John Rayburn looks back from an informal standpoint that can help bring memories to life or disclose information of a period before your time … pleasant listening in either case.
