The Books of Ruth

Relive the 20th century through the writings of a remarkable woman. The diaries extend from a 19 year-old Ruth waving to a pioneer aviator from her second-story porch in rural Indiana until, as a nonagenarian, she rejoices in the Voyager landing. Recitations, transcripts, and speeches by this Mennonite farmer's wife help round out her life. With 46 photographs spanning her lifetime.
