Book Overview
At eighty-three Marcia Elder was alert and active but felt insecure about facing another winter alone, yet she dreaded giving up her old home and entering a re-tirement facility. So, with great resourcefulness, she advertised for a companion and eventually staked out a corner of her own--one with a view. Mildred Walker's skill as a storyteller never falters in this portrayal of an elderly woman who won't give up.

A great understanding of aging and the loss of independence
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book is worth reading, especially if you have or know someone who is getting older. Like many of Walker's books, her descriptions are so vivid you are right there with her characters on a moutain in Vermont.
