Cora Frear Hawkins

I thoroughly enjoyed "Buggies, Blizzards and Babies", a memoir about E D Frear as written by his daughter and published in 1971. Set primarily in Iowa, the daughter, Cora, recounts her memories of helping her father and other stories of his days as a country doctor from the late 1800s into the early 1900s. This is a sweet, sentimental story that kept me entranced from beginning to end. In the vein of "Little House on the Pairie", this is not a scholarly work but rather a family story told in common terms. I will be passing this book around to others that I think will enjoy the story, too.… (plus d'informations)
