Packinghouse Daughter also testifies to the hold that childhood experience has on personal values and notions of social class, despite the upward mobility that is the great promise of American democracy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cheri Register\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Minnesota Historical Society Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.34h x 5.66w x 1.03d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780873513913\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Society of Midland Authors Award - Honorable Mention\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2000 pg. 154\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2000 pg. 45\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/20\/2000","brand":"Minnesota Historical Society Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":40444029272179,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":28.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_b1ea1892-af7d-4584-aea6-60c28a0314d8.jpg?v=1663338886","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/packinghouse-daughter-a-memoir-9780873513913","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
