In this book, Thomas McGuane tells the story of his family's generations-long battle with poverty, from the Great Depression to the present day. McGuane's father, an itinerant laborer, was a character out of Dickens, and his mother was a saintly woman who raised her children with the understanding that they would have to work for their own food and shelter. McGuane's memoir is a beautiful and wrenching exploration of the ties that bind a family together, and the strength of the human spirit.; 8vo; 230 pages.
