6.25x9.25, gold boards, black stamping. D/J and mylar cover. Inside endpapers are tanned. Book is in very good, clean and tight condition. Story of how a Michigan woman ended up in Port Aransas with a fisherman husband and 4 children. I love books like this as they are telling an unvarnished story that hasn't been over sanitized. Elda May's story of her life on the Gulf Coast with a husband who hires out his fishing boat is unique. This is like sitting in her living room and listening to her stories. This is a Texana must, especially for the Gulf Coast stories you need.
