Tremble Chin

This true saga recounts the life of the author's mother, who earned the nickname of the book's title. A small woman, what she lacked in stature, she gained in spirit. Poverty, disappointment with her family, tragedy and poor health demanded every spark of her spirit as the years passed. She married a penniless Southern lad whose only assets were the clothes on his back and an indomitable will to work and succeed. They faced the storms of life together. The only thing that ever trembled on that frail little Yankee woman was her chin.
