I received Oh, Beautiful in a Goodreads giveaway in 2010, and it has stayed with me for these 15 years. So much so that, now that I am the library director in a small rural library, I just wanted to say that I will be ordering it soon for a special event that we will be doing around the 4th of July. Thank you so much for the story of your family history! I believe that it will resonate with my patrons as much as it did with me.
