Satisfaction Guaranteed. Hitch Your Wagon to a Star is a fictionalized biography of a girl named Melba beginning with the childhood events that shape her. A little like the "ugly duckling", esteem issues coupled with being a bullied girl from the wrong side of town create challenges to her fortitude. Despite her outward bravado and pith, secret fears and longings are constant companions. Life in the early Texas oil towns of Damon and Kilgore is anything but easy, and a less determined child might have abandoned dreams, no matter how compelling. Melba's eventual successes mirror the dogged tenacity that pushes the girl with tattered, hand-me-down clothing and borrowed shoes to defy boundaries and ignore gender prejudice. Embedded in the story of her Texas family is history that includes little-known facts about the oil boom in Kilgore: the greed, the grime, the time of brutal martial law, the bawdiness of honky tonks, and, oddly, the persistent inclusion of music, the arts and higher education. Told by Terri Winters Majors, this compelling story about her mother, Melba Black Winters, is a history-spanning tale of life during the Great Depression, the East Texas Oil Boom, World War II, the Cold War, and the years leading up to and including "Women's Liberation". Hitch Your Wagon to a Star is a true story of grit and determination that gives readers a look at history from the perspective of a female who experienced the hell of the worst of times and the heaven of finding a special niche in spite of her reality.

From the acknowledgements/dust jacket: "Greenville, South Carolina's foothills city, was not always bustling with newcomers and multitudes of industries. It was once a quiet Southern town; but it never stood still.

Pages are clean with black and white illustrations. End papers show some tanning and back inside board bears faint acid staining due to age.

DJ shows wear with sunning on the spine and small tears on front and back, (particularly in the corners and edges), along with some rubbing. 152 pp. Full refund if not satisfied.Pale yellow cloth with black lettering and design, inscribed by author with "Fond regards to Jim Stockman, son of a good friend" and dated September, 1978 on front free end paper.

FROM THE DUST JACKET: "In thirty-nine all too brief chapters, charmingly illustrated by Mrs. Florence S. Brothers, Mrs. Marsh has deftly brought to life some four decades of Greenville roots. She has gathered fascinating reminiscences from diaries, newspaper files, and living descendants of fine people who made Greenville history from the critical days of Reconstruction through World War I. Moreover, she speaks with all the loving tenderness of a true Daughter of the Confederacy." (Mary C. Oliphant, Author and Historian). Signed by the Author.
