Summary

While their men fight, America's women produce what's necessary for victory. In a Michigan shipyard, four female co-workers forge a strong bond of friendship that, combined with faith, helps them to overcome oppression, despair, and tragedy - and find love in unlikely places.

Written from four diverse viewpoints, A Woman's Place is an emotionally rich glimpse of life in World Ware II America.

Lynn Austin's three Christy Awards include one for Hidden Places, which was made into a popular Hallmark film.

Moving and challenging

I enjoyed The relationships and weaving various issues into the story. Heartwarming look at women’srights, racism forgiveness and grief and faith.

Superb narration

I have read this book before but Christina Moore’s narration brought the characters to life in such a wonderful way. As always, Lynn Austin’s books are a joy to both listen to and read.

Hearing about a different view of the war.

What woman went through in those times, that propelled woman to start having more say. How sad that the segregation and discrimination was so strong back then. Loved the story and characters.
