Book Cover for Dear Mrs. Steele, Thank you...
Dear Mrs. Steele, Thank you...

By Judi Stewart and Dianne Crowley

Wikipedia defines a time capsule as “a historic cache of goods or information.” The story in this book is such a time capsule that begins in 1942 and ends in 1945. This book contains letters from soldiers and family members who wrote to Mrs. Lena Steele over that period. The letters, which were recently found, appeared to be untouched from the time they were placed in a small box until discovered in the fall of 2019; an appropriate description of a time capsule. The book offers a snapshot of young men and women sent to war and their deep bond to the community in which they grew up. It is dedicated to the soldiers and the woman, Lena Steele, who kept that bond alive for them during those war years.
