Grandma McConnell's Letters: War Time Correspondence 1945 - 1946

By Beth Mavis

Enter the world of Greta McConnell at the end of World War II. Living in Oak Park, Illinois she has three sons off to war, two adult daughters at home, one married and living nearby, and one in a distant state. Letters fly back and forth sharing family news, local gossip and lamenting over the scarcity of items. These are the days of swapping ration coupons, standing in lines hoping for a bit of meat, censored mail, trains reserved for soldiers and making do with what one has. The stories are personal, personalities are playful and events are historical. This is a work of nonfiction. Greta really lived and these are her real letters saved for nearly 80 years.
