Patricias richly detailed memories, coupled with a backdrop of Depression era hardships, bring the Big Bend to life in this original and vivid description of a childhood spent Beneath the Window.Big Bend has been a National Park since the mid 1940s.

If you ever have a chance to visit Big Bend National Park, this memoir is a must. …
