From there, she invites readers into her bustling 1940s neighborhood in Chester, Pennsylvania, where her father worked in support of the war effort before returning to the quiet farmlands of Sussex County.Later, as the wife of an Army man, she ventures into the wilds of Alaska. With an inquisitive, sometimes hesitant spirit, her observant eyes move with the river’s currents, pulled along a journey of faith, family, and service.This collection offers a vivid snapshot of American life in the decades following the Great Depression and World War II, contrasting the hum of industrial towns with the hush of rural landscapes.Above all, Waterfield returns again and again to the joy of childhood summers spent on the Nanticoke River—days of generational kinship, endless imagination, and deep roots in the place that anchored her heart to Bethel.
