O My America!
Shortlisted for the Dolman Travel Book Award After reckoning with the ends of the earth in acclaimed books such as Terra Incognita and The Magnetic North, Sara Wheeler rediscovered America thirty-five years after her first Greyhound trip across the country. She returns in turbulent midlife to trace the steps of six women who fled various sorts of trouble in nineteenth-century England and went to the United States to reinvent themselves. Her travel companions include Fanny Trollope, mother of Anthony and author of the biting Domestic Manners of the Americans; the actress Fanny Kemble, who shocked the nation with her passionate first-hand indictment of slavery; the prolifically pamphleteering economist Harriet Martineau; the homesteader Rebecca Burlend, who had never been more than twelve miles from her Yorkshire village before she sailed to the New World; the traveller Isabella Bird, whose many ailments remained in check as long as she was scaling the Rockies; and the novelist Catherine Hubback, niece of Jane Austen, who deposited her husband in a madhouse and rode the brand-new rails to San Francisco. Tough-minded outsiders, these women’s truest qualities emerged in a country as incomplete and tentative as their native land was staid and settled. And they discovered second acts for themselves at a time when the world expected them to disappear politely. From the swampy heat of Georgia’s Sea Islands to the icy purity of the Cascades, Sara Wheeler finds their path, and her own.
Oh My! What a Life!
Sharon Terry tells the story of her family's struggle to escape poverty at the end of the Great Depression and how she became a registered nurse, married, divorced, remarried happily for forty years, raised four successful sons and overcame two separate cancers and two heart attacks. She was the youngest member of a family of seven children. Her beloved father died when she was nine years old, leaving her mother desperately providing for and holding together her family. Sharon describes her small town life in southern Indiana and her life as a teenager on a large farm outside the small Indiana farm community of Poseyville. Leaving southern Indiana for Indianapolis, she attends nurses training, works hard and frolics some, becoming a registered nurse. She marries and then discovers the sorrows of her failed marriage and her difficulties and joys raising three young boys as a single parent. Then she entered her happy, forty year marriage to her second husband. They move to Carmel, Indiana, where she has her fourth son. She recounts how the new family bonded, how the sons were educated and given tough love, became successful, married and produced eight grandchildren. She describes how she coped with two cancers and two heart attacks, showing the same strength, endurance, courage and good nature that her mother earlier showed through years of near poverty. Finally, she introduces the grandchildren and shows that there will be a future and that it will be good.
