Stained Glass and Railroad Tracks (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781545208540)

A woman reflects on her coming of age in a Texas Panhandle oil camp town in the 1950's. The discovery of letters and various articles written by and about her ancestors, found in her mother's attic, brought to life her family's history. Her ancestors had set out from Kentucky in the early 1800's. Blacksmiths, merchants and farmers, they raised their children to be strong and loving people, while experiencing war, loss and great joy. Eventually settling in the Texas Panhandle during oil exploration led to new challenges for her parents. Told with humor and a lively sense of growing up in a very special time and unique place this is the story and gift of her family.
