“The tremendous history of a courageous American immigrant family from which we can all learn the spirit of integrity, faith and love.  Experience the family living through the coal mines in West Virginia, big city life in Chicago, and the wild-western culture of Arizona.  This book shows not just one slice of Americana, but a wide-angle view of the whole of twentieth-century living - a taste of what day-to-day life was really like.”

"I laughed!  I cried!  This book takes the reader on an incredible journey filled with insight into the lives of both Karolina and Helen. Through trials and tribulations, these women left a legacy of love and inspiration to new generations of spirited individuals. Priceless photographs, which take the reader to another time and place add to the journey. From Czechoslovakia to Arizona, the reader enjoys learning of a rich family heritage filled with countless blessings.  It was a joy to read!”
