Stories of the Deep South conjure antebellum images of magnolia
trees, honeysuckle vines, balmy days, hot love, and strong women.
"Making a Way" portrays a different version of the South. In this
memoir, author Emily Davenport tells about her life as a
twentieth-century woman who followed many of the same traditions
but at a different time and in a different way.
Telling the tale of her life from her birth in 1923 in Columbia,
South Carolina, through her youth as an only child, this story
provides a glimpse into the Roaring Twenties in the South. Emily's
father demonstrated a strong work ethic, and her mother inspired a
thirst for knowledge. It was a time when a man's word was his bond,
and honesty and integrity were the mark of a good citizen.
"Making a Way" tells how Emily received her education not only
from books but from her varied experiences. Following in her
mother's footsteps, she became a nurse and later found, at age
fifty another talent that lay buried deep within her. Today, this
Southern woman continues to give her time and energy to others.
Hers is a life well lived with ups and downs; she never gives up,
and she keeps the faith that tomorrow will be better.
