Product Description

From the 1940s to the twenty-first century were decades of extreme changes and a world that appeared to revolve more quickly than in previous times. Dal was thrust from a childhood in post-Depression era Appalachia into a world at war and then into the following years that brought new technologies, new opportunities, and new challenges but still enforced societal double standards that made being female less than all she had hoped it could be. There are times of laughter and times of tears as Dal confronts what her life has to offer. Share her journey through the twists and turns of fate and choice and recognize the pitfalls we all experience as we journey through life.

Travel in time with Dal as she leaves her Appalachian home to join the Women's Army Air Corps during World War II. Personal choices and geographical changes continue her journeys as life becomes more and more complicated. Dal was no ordinary woman and hers was no ordinary life.
