Description
Discover the untold stories of the Great Patriotic War through "Burnt Offerings" by Linda L. Roberts, narrated by Kyle Goodknight. This captivating historical audiobook, based on true events, immerses you in the era of World War II, offering a poignant look at the lives of those who served on and off the battlefield.
Betty Lou Ross, a quiet hero, was born during the Great Depression into a family of eight children. Her father, a World War I veteran, and her four older brothers all served in World War II. While they fought abroad, Betty and her mother, Alma Ross, supported the war effort at home. Alma's small yet significant acts of kindness—providing rations, making scrapbooks to boost soldiers' morale—taught Betty the importance of giving.
"Burnt Offerings" meticulously captures the emotional landscape of World War II. Through real letters and vivid storytelling, the audiobook portrays Betty's journey as she watched her brothers go off to war and heard heart-wrenching stories from her father. Determined to make a difference, Betty followed in her mother's footsteps, creating scrapbooks for the troops.
This audiobook is not just a historical account but also a biography of Betty Lou Ross and her family's unwavering patriotism amidst the hardships of war. It highlights the resilience of women managing households and supporting war efforts, reflecting the true spirit of those times.
