What is Where The Twenties Weren't Roaring about?

Where The Twenties Weren't Roaring describes life from 1926 to 1929, away from the "boom times" taking place in the cities. It reflects memories of the author, written through her eyes as an interested, observant child participating in the daily business of life, but too young and inexperienced to bear any responsibility. She relates how it felt to ride across the country in a touring car before the national highway system was developed. She depicts the eating, sleeping and sanitary accommodations available then. She tells of work activities such as worming tobacco, drying apples, milking, and hunting, and of such social activities as box suppers, a cemetery cleaning off, Sunday school and Camp Meeting. These experiences take place in Lyon County, Kentucky; however, folks from many rural areas will find themselves on familiar ground.
