MEASURE OF A MAN

Good family book this, in a comfortable, homespun story of Illinois in the '90's. Episodes of all kinds, from the fight over the school teacher's keeping company, to dad's store and his cronies, and the household kingdom where the mother is unseen stage hand. Three daughters and the problems of their growing up. And at the close, the father's bid for the Mayoralty. For conservative tastes.
