The Shining Hours

Growing up in Texas during the depression, Virginia Larson had a deep reverence for family, history and tradition. But when she fell in love with a mechanic in the Air Force, she defied all three and moved back with him to his hometown, deep in yankee territory. The Shining Hours is her account of the times she lived in, the challenges she faced, and the people dear to her. Transcribed and edited by her grandson shortly after her death, The Shining Hours is the unvarnished story of a proud Texan and the family line that radiates from her in both directions.
