In My MindÕs Eye spans nearly a century of Pauline BeckmanÕs memories: From watching her mother sweep a dirt-floored kitchen to kicking up her heels during the Roaring Ô20s. From mastering the art of Òflour-sack frugalÓ during the Depression to discovering a natural affinity for storytelling late in her eighth decade. But this collection of stories is more than just a colorful personal memoir. ItÕs a rich historical record of American life as it was lived in an earlier era.
In the words of J.M Barrie, ÒGod gave us memory that we might have roses in December.Ó So come on in. Share in these snapshots of days pastÑstop and smell the roses.
