Wolf At Our Door
Wolf At Our Door
By Emily Mary Bell

We thought that we were prepared for the Great Depression, but when it came it was like an unexpected blow in the solar plexus. I shall never live long enough to forget the look on Tom’s face when he arrived home that Fourth of July. I came in from the kitchen as he entered the living room from the front door. He had gone down to the station to see if there was any railroad mail for him from division headquarters, and there IT was.   Wolf at our Door is the account of one families struggle through the Great Depression.
