Description

Home: A Bronx Girl Remembers is a book of memories. Dorothy Henderson's recollections trace back some eighty-five years to when she was a five year old girl when her family, like many of the families of that time, were very poor. The Depression was in full force. It was a time of friendship and neighborly co-operation, the only way to survive. This book is about her growing up in The Bronx. It's about her life and friends from the playground, until her first job as a Librarian after finishing college. It includes the very important parts about her war years' work making maps for the U.S. Army Map Service, which was a secret, as was her service as a junior hostess at the Stage Door Canteen. This is a book of memories of that time, of family, special friends and relationships, and of special places and events. Dorothy hopes to stir many more memories within those who take the journey and read this book, and that people will learn something of the things that were normal in the past.
