Dear Mom

About this book

This is a compiled book of my mother's column, "Dear Mom," that she wrote from 1953 through February 1955. The columns appeared in the Walnut Bureau Newspaper in Walnut, Iowa. Columns are in letter format as if she was writing to her mother, Ella Prendergast Lehnhardt about current events, and personal anecdotes. I have added notes on many of the columns with current events and personal anecdotes as well, as if I were responding to her letter. It might be considered a short memoir of our family. Book may be purchased through blurb.com store.
