Reviews

"Evelyn Birkby, famous as a radio homemaker, is also the dean of Iowa newspaper columnists, having written lifestyle columns for sixty-three years without ever missing a week. This book is like Evelyn's Greatest Hits. It's also a highly entertaining folk-history of the Midwest from 1949 to the present."--Iowa writer Chuck Offenburger

"I began to smile as soon as I started to read this collection of columns by Evelyn Birkby, gleaned from 63 years of publication in the same southwestern Iowa newspaper. The author invites us to share the everyday lives of folks in a rural community where they all had so much in common, from looking after those who were less fortunate to exchanging recipes--sometimes not successfully--and yes, there is a great recipe for fried green tomatoes. Reading these chatty columns is like having a friend you have known all your life come to visit you. Indeed, this collection serves as a conduit for bridging the gap that separates us one from another. Read it and enjoy!"--Mildred Armstrong Kalish, author, Little Heathens: Hard Times and High Spirits on an Iowa Farm during the Great Depression
