Description

Howard and Elsie Charlesworth vividly describe growing up on farms during the Great Depression and World War II in Cattaraugus County in Western New York. We can't imagine what it was like raising a family in a house with no electricity, no running water or indoor plumbing, and no telephone... whilst working the fields with a team of horses. It is amazing how hard people had to work just to survive. Even though life was always difficult and sometimes very painful, there were good times as well.

The authors candidly and humorously discuss farm life, attending one-room schoolhouses, eccentric family members and neighbors, and attending High School during World War II, which gives you a comprehensive picture of what life was like growing up on a farm in the nineteen thirties and the early forties.
