Why read it?

1 author picked ...And Ladies of the Club as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This is the story about a town in Ohio, from 1868, right after the Civil War, to 1932. It encompasses families, relationships, history, politics, and everything in between. A veritable history of our country during those years told in a wonderful, informative and heartwarming way.
