Sobre IBD

Take a stroll into the past with these short stories of southern humor, wisdom, and faith.  Whether you are a true native or simply a lover of the South, a treasure awaits to be discovered for you to value and cherish for years to come.  Open this book and you may find yourself settling into a porch swing with a glass of iced tea, or you might decide to get out that old shoebox of photos as memories of the past flood your mind.  From the pitfalls of lawnmower ownership to priceless recollections of loved ones, Tom McDonald creates an atmosphere of nostalgia as we amble down memory lane. At the heart of this book is a tender ode to family, with promises, memories, and most important, unconditional love.  Journey with this special family, who stayed bonded together through loss and sacrifices, managing to not only survive but thrive during the Great Depression, World War II, and all the trials since.  Get ready to smile and reminisce at these glimpses into southern life, all given with the reminder that God is in control.
