Like all communities, it has lost sons and daughters to the fighting, with many more giving themselves over to the hatred only war can engender. Set in 1918 in the farm country at the heart of America, The Meaning of Names is the story of an ordinary woman trying to raise a family during extraordinary times. Estranged from her parents because she married against their will, confronted with violence and prejudice against her people, and caught up in the midst of the worst plague the world has ever seen, Gerda Vogel, an American of German descent, must find the strength to keep her family safe from the effects of a war that threatens to consume the whole world.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 228mmItem Length: 152mmItem Width: 18mmItem Weight: 295gAuthor: Karen ShoemakerGenre: FictionRelease Year: 2014 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
