No Silver Spoon

A delightful memoir of a small town in southern Minnesota during the Great Depression. Stimler writes with humor and authority (he was there!). He tells his story in thirty-seven vignettes that show how people coped and found hope in everyday events. If you lived through the Depression, you’ll find poignant memories that will bring both tears and laughter, and if you love “Christmas Story,” you’ll be entertained just as much by “No Silver Spoon.”
