Step back in time to the little farm community of Osage Bend, Missouri, between 1930 and 1945—when times were tough, but people were tougher.
*** LARGE PRINT EDITION ***
The Bumpy Road is a warm, plainspoken memoir of growing up on a small Missouri farm during the Great Depression. Told through the author’s boyhood memories, it captures long days of hard work, the importance of family and church, and the quiet pride of making do with what you had.
Though shaped by difficult times, this is not a story of despair. It’s a celebration of perseverance, resourcefulness, and the enduring belief in a better future. From farm chores and household skills to the values that held families together, The Bumpy Road captures a way of life that still offers lessons today.
Bonus: Includes photographs and illustrations of authentic farm tools, implements, and household items from the era—many now found only in museums.
