Really enjoyed this post Phillip, thank you!
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting book Phillip. I think I remember that woman on the Carson show. I used to watch Johnny faithfully. I might even go down that rabbit hole of youtube and try to find an episode to watch to see if I remember right. Lucky you to have found the book.
ReplyDeleteFascinating stuff! I'll try to find a video of Thalassa Cruso as you brought her to life so vividly in this post. I expect this book of hers will not be donated any time soon. You'd need to find another to part with to lighten up your collection.
ReplyDeleteLovely,inmens discovery. Thank you por posting. "Let"s not spoil it again". She was a environmentalist,too . No more wild flowers now with everything urbanized and polluted. I enjoy my wild garden. I guess she would have one ,too.
