Summary: What A Book
Comment: I am one of the many cousins of Richard Aquila, although I don't know him very well. I am one of Francie's daughter's. I have to say that I learned more about my grand parents and uncles from this book than my parents ever told me. I can't even begin to imagine what it had to be like to pack up the family every summer and bring them to the farms to pick crops for the farmers. I never knew how brave my grandmother was as she fought cancer while four of her sons were in the armed services. It seemed that she waited for all of them to come home safe before she let the disease take her. My grandmother died well before I was born, and my grandfather died when I was a small child, so my memeories of him are very faint. I couldn't put this book down after I started it. I wanted it to go on forever to learn more about my family. I think everyone will be taken in by the struggles endured by this family even if you're not a member of the Aquila clan.
