"In Their Footsteps" tells the rich saga of the Crete Woman's Club's first 100 years, from 1912-2012, in Crete, Illinois. Written by local journalist Audrey DeMuth, who has chronicled life in this quintessential small Midwestern town for decades, it records what a dedicated, inventive aggregation of women can accomplish when they put their minds to it. Along the way the peculiarities of small town life and a few foibles of its residents come to life. An added bonus is "Crete's Early History,'' riveting first person tales of Crete's early pioneers, compiled and first published by the Crete Woman's Club in 1922.
