Trade paperback. Condition: Good. First Printing [Stated]. [10], 150 pages. Illustrations (some in color). Maps. Appendices, including Chronology of Lydia's Live and Sources of Information. Signed by the author on the half-title page with sentiment, reads Enjoy! Lydia Thayer. Decorative cover. Front edge curls slightly. Edna's l…ove of teaching began at Mankato State University in Mankato, MN where she was an Associate Professor in Nursing. She taught there from 1966 to 1977. Since 1990, Edna has given over 800 talks in 11 different states and Canada, on the benefits of joy and laughter for ones health. Her talks are based on a book she co-authored with Dr. Mary Huntley, "A Mirthful Spirit, Embracing Laughter for Wellness." Another popular topic which she presents is entitled, "Secrets of Survival," and is based on her latest award winning book, Feisty Lydia, Memoirs of a German War Bride. Feisty Lydia is the personal story of a woman born in 1925 in Neuotting, Germany. Her remarkable spirit helped her to survive a premature birth, the Great Depression, death-defying experiences, the Nazi regime, and war in her country. The story continues when this German war bride journeyed with her young son Johnny aboard an American troop ship to America in 1948 to join her husband John. Read how Lydia used her feisty and optimistic spirit to overcome the struggles of life in a new country and to create her Elysian Fields, a place of joy and tranquility, in the city of Elysian, MN. Sprinkled with glimpses of history to provide the setting, the biography of Lydia is created from personal interviews with Lydia, her family, and friends. Kirk Ross (Cover art) (illustrator).
