How does a woman facing trauma and adversity find the courage and resilience to survive?
Susan Harris tells the stories of her grandmother and mother as they faced the difficult situations life dealt them, yet persevered despite the weight of being women in the early 20th century.
Thorough research, including oral and written histories, newspaper articles, and online sources, allowed Harris to investigate what happened to her grandmother and what might have happened. Beginning in Chicago, the stories take the reader to Missouri, Iowa, Kansas city and England. The reader will travel through the Women's Suffrage Movement, WWI, the Roaring Twenties, the Depression, and pre WWII era
.
Inspired by actual events, Harris shares the story of her grandmother, Iva Mae Noland, a young waitress who falls in love with a womanizing rich Englishman. Together with his wealthy parents, he ensnares her in a web of lies. When women's rights were limited, her grandmother gained national attention for her remarkable courage and for challenging the norms of her time.
