HARDSCRABBLE FEATHERBED

The 1950's in the Northwest Florida town of Kinard, was a time of hard work for little pay and yet a pioneer spirit seemed to be in each heart . The people strived to succeed against strong odds, and whenever a neighbor was in need they pulled together to get by. The author was born in 1949, and wrote the book for her family, but also as a tribute to the wonderful neighbors who always "had her back."

Anii 1950, in orasul Kinard din nord-vestul Floridei, au fost o perioada de munca grea, cu putine salarii si totusi un spirit de pionier parea sa fie in fiecare inima. Oamenii s-au straduit sa reuseasca impotriva unor cote puternice si, ori de cate ori un vecin avea nevoie, se strangeau impreuna pentru a trece.
