Picnics, Plays, and Autograph-Book Days

By Lana Lynne

Description:

Vera and Cap grew up together in East Texas during the optimistic days before WWI, the dark days amidst the war and influenza, and the unprecedented post-war days. No one had time to ponder much beyond their own door. Each member of their farming families worked from sunup to sundown to survive. A strict and devout church heritage underpinned their rural community. Such beginnings didn’t allow for many dreams, but it shaped theirs.

Vera wants to be a nurse, but Mama can’t afford her dream. With her grandfather’s support, she excels in her studies far from home in San Antonio, Texas.

Cap wants to marry Vera. For him, no other dream matters. She insists they must agree about their plans for the future. Well, he’s agreeable. If there’s any disagreeing, she’ll have to do it.

A trip home in early July of 1927 may change everything. Will dreams be destroyed or discovered? Find out in Picnics, Plays, and Autograph-Book Days by Lana Lynne.
