Summary

This audiobook could be the story of any family that had to carry on through job loss, bankruptcy, home fires, disease epidemics, and the loss of loved ones through the Depression era.

The events and people mentioned in this audiobook span three generations. This branch of the DeFreece family first settled in Virginia and later relocated to the Kingsport, Tennessee, area in 1900. Several family members served in the military during World War II. Others were employed by Tennessee Eastman, Holston Ordinance Works, or American Bemberg.

Follow the trials and tribulations of a large family at the beginning of the 19th century. Hear about their pain and desperation during the darkest years of the Great Depression and how they banded together to pull through. Find out what it was like to be a kid during these difficult times.
