The Navigator’s Letter: In The Clubmobile with Jan Cress Dondi
54m
If you know us, you know that we will never turn down the opportunity to read a good book; bonus points if the book checks all our wartime boxes. Jan Cress Dondi's book, The Navigator's Letter, does just that! It turns out, a small town where everyone knows each other is not so small when wartime reaches America's doorstep in December 1941, especially for John B. White and Robert Cress. Two young men living in Illinois answer their country's call to serve, finding themselves living an almost parallel life as Navigators on B-24 Liberators. Jan expertly tells her family's story of John B. and Bob, and the woman who holds them both in a special place in her heart- Polley. The coffee is hot and the sinkers are fresh, so join us in The Clubmobile as we talk wartime and family history!
