Through family letters and photos, plus autobiographical material from her mother's childhood, as well as her own memories, \u003cem\u003eA Summerland Stories Scrapbook: Memories \u0026amp; Memorabilia 1930s-1960s\u003c\/em\u003e recreates the shared experiences, perceptions, values, and community during those years. This collection of stories, poems, and photgraphs is a record of a small Canadian town in the mid-twentieth century--a community and environment that still reflected old-time values, but was also moving forward into a very different modern world. Readers may find themselves nostalgic for a time when community members lived simply and self-sufficiently, engaging together in the agriculture-related work foundational to their town's existence. Life then emphasized loving kindness, humility, generosity, and optimism for a better, more hopeful future. Those pondering whether there is still room for hope today may find there's much we can learn from this historical period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 248\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.52 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 07, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53555605864781,"sku":"9781069329608","price":22.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/LLHb-CZBsD9781069329608.webp?v=1773859840","url":"https:\/\/belfastbooks.us\/products\/a-summerland-stories-scrapbook-memories-memorabilia-1930s-1960s-paperback","provider":"belfastbooks.us","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
