Main Street: A Gables and Gingerbread Story - Paperback

by Mollie Lyon (Author)

Martha and Tom Sloan build a family and life on Main Street in a beautiful home in the early 1900's. Tom searches to better their way of life with expansion of his livery commerce into the new auto business. Life for Martha centers around her children, school, and neighborhood. One night they venture out to a new form of entertainment. They view a moving picture that fuels Tom's sense of superiority and ignites a flame of hatred. Martha finds herself increasingly isolated as Tom's actions bring that hatred to their front door.

A tragic accident on a stormy night emboldens Martha to fight against the hatred. Martha and Tom's reactions to the aftermath of the accident provide a glimpse at worldly and godly sorrow.
