Fellow Traveler: A Twentieth Century American Life

It is a memoir about Esther Rowland's journey through the Twentieth Century from the perspective of a middle-class Jewish, politically engaged woman. The book contains funny and revealing stories about family and friends--all set in the context of the times: the Depression, World War II, as well as the struggles for civil liberties, civil rights, women's equality and peace. The book also describes Esther's marriage to Lewis P. Rowland, M.D. and their efforts to live out their values and pass them along to their children and grandchildren.
