Watch Out for the Mules

[minimal shelfwear to book, a nice clean copy; jacket shows a touch of rubbing at spine ends, tiny one-time sale price in ink at top corner of front flap]. "A fond and funny chronicle of life as an Army brat in those almost incredible years between two world wars." Actually, Army brats x 3, as the primary characters in this semi-autobiographical novel are the narrator, Carol, and her two siblings: "Accident-prone Allen and poetry-writing Carol and precocious Sarah had a childhood that was in many ways highly unusual, but it was also generally happy and characteristically American." The author's subsequent (and only other) novel, "The Lion in the Lei Shop," published in 1970, was about the experiences of a young mother and her daughter during World War II, beginning in Hawaii with the attack on Pearl Harbor.
