description: The 1900s have been years of great change, perhaps the greatest amount of change in the least number of years since life began. This book is a personal account of this change - one man's trek through life. It includes glimpses How a family of 11 survived Depression-era poverty; The effect of World War II on those who stayed home; How the past affects (and will affect) the future; A present-day application for flora and fauna - for beauty as well as survival; The conversion of a portion of a slave plantation (El Destino) into a tiny corner of "heaven on earth" (Sweetwater); Time-worn, still-loved recipes including Chitterlings, Greens, Fried Apple Pie, and Buried Muscadine Wine.
