Kamas Girl: Child of Promise

When Marva Hancock read through her late mother's handwritten autobiography, she knew that this was a story that had to be told. In this vivid new look at one woman's life, Hancock honors a woman who made tremendous sacrifices for her family as the world changed before her eyes. At the beginning of her memoirs, Lois states, "I shall try to reveal the real me." The woman who emerges from these pages has an iron will and an unswerving determination to keep her family healthy and happy. Even as life began providing her with many disappointments, she continued to offer comfort and stability as a wife and mother. Hancock recounts how Lois reacted when her husband quit his job in the middle of the Great Depression and the sacrifices she made as the family became more and more economically unstable. Through these periods of uncertainty, the pains of childbirth, the struggles of motherhood, and the sorrows of her relationships, Lois remained steadfast. This new biography is sometimes tragic and sometimes deeply funny. Lois embodies the unflappable character of the Greatest Generation, and her story reveals the inner world of a woman who shouldered her burden with a quiet resolve.
