A budding romance between two teenagers fresh out of high school from Worcester, Massachusetts, all documented in the letters they wrote between 1943-1946 while George served in the U.S. Army Air Corps during WW II. Thanks to Lottie's foresight to have George mail her letters back, for the majority of the letters, the reader gets both sides of their conversations. You will experience firsthand George and Lottie's hopes and dreams, along with their fair share of despair and loneliness from having to be apart during this tumultuous time of American history. Much transpires during the timeframe of the letters and you cannot help but feel as if you've traveled back in time and are peering over the shoulders of George and Lottie as they write to each other. In addition, to further enhance the readers' experience, many photos, postcards, telegrams, etc., which were found with the letters have been included in the book, as well.
