A New Book.
"All the Days of My Life, by
Amelia Barr is book of more than
passing interest, in fact, has been
mentioned by book reviewers as one
of the wonderful biographies of the
past year.
The recital of her days spent in
Austin and Galveston during the
early sixties will be of interest to all
Texans,
She lived through many trials
and experienced severe hardshlps
before she discovered her gift with
the pen. Not until she was past
forty did she rely upon this talent
since which time she has contrib
uted largely to American literature
She lives today in the state OF Ne"
York at the age of eighty-three and
enjoys a competence from her litera-
ry efforts.
This book will be found among
recent additions to Sims Library.
