'This Is the Life' paints a vivid picture of the life and times of Jennie McLeod, a 20th-century college girl from the mill town of Clinton, Massachusetts. Author Leslie Perrin Wilson presents Jennie and her world through careful research, contextual narrative, and a richly annotated transcription of her 1914-1918 diary. Jennie’s distinctive personality, her family, friends, studies, and aspirations, along with the presence of larger events in the background--world war and woman’s suffrage, in particular--all come to life on the pages of this book. 3
