Third, in a three-volume series showcasing the vintage photography of J.C. Allen & Sons, this book features photos of what people did when they weren’t working in the fields, barns, or farmyards in the 1920s-1940s. More than 120 photographs of rural families in their kitchens, parlors, and dining rooms.

Photos of going to town and spending time at the library, grocery or general stores, school, and doctor's office, transport the reader to another time when life moved slower, and family and community were important.
