When You Grow Up

by Connie McDonald, Jill Finnane

Brought up an orphan at Forest River Mission, Connie McDonald became a teacher, a missionary in the Church Army and a welfare worker. Her stories recall an era of matrons and missionaries, strict regulations and clothes made out of flour bags. Confronting and suffering racism, Connie kept searching for her place in the world and her family.
