Book Description
"Mary Ann Berry has given us a riveting story [that] transcends the everyday and reveals how one family has written its chapter in the fascinating story of America." William R. Gray Retired writer, editor and publishing executive after 33 years at the National Geographic Society Author of Legacy of the West Charley's Girl tells the tale of a scrappy farm girl in central Oregon fighting her only classmate in front of their one-room schoolhouse--to a feisty octogenarian snowshoeing in Durango, Colorado. Along the way, Mary Alma Christy Sablich also recalls her more than fifty years spent in Chicago and its suburbs as worried wife, nervous mother, and grateful grandma. Charley's Girl offers a dual-perspective on the life that Mary Alma and her daughter (author Mary Ann Berry) share as Berry listens, records, and remembers, too. This country was built on the backs of regular folks like the Christy family who rose to the task with common sense, healthy humor, and simple dignity. It takes courage to live an ordinary life, and Charley's Girl provides one example that has worked for almost a century.

Book Description
They were five young men, all still in their teens and all from the same community. Schooled together they had remained close friends after finishing the eighth grade. These last few years theyd worked, each helping on their own families farms. Now with their younger brothers and sisters old enough to take over, they could leave. Their parents and others relatives would have all the help they needed. For years they had banded together as adventurous youths and now they talked of more exciting things to do and places to see. Though they were warned about how tough the times were and there was little work, except for seasonal farm labor, they were not deterred. They had heard the new courthouse being built in St. Louis. Though it was some distance away and place where they had never been, they felt sure a city with that large a building project would surly need many workers. Their families though reluctant to see them leave did help them gather the things they would need. They knew these were determined young men, anxious to look for that something they felt in their hearts was out there, waiting just for them.
