On My Own at 107: Reflections on Life Without Bessie

by Sarah Louise Delany, Amy Hill Hearth

About this title: On September 25, 1995, Dr. Annie Elizabeth (Bessie) Delany died at home in Mount Vernon, New York, marking the end of not only an extraordinary life, but of a century-long relationship with her cherished older sister, Sarah. Now, after a quiet year of mourning and reflection, and inspired by Bessie's beloved garden, Sarah has composed a collection of warm memories and delightful anecdotes, illustrated throughout with paintings of Bessie's favorite flowers.

Note: This is a general synopsis. Each listing is described below.

"An easy read -- more on the Delaney sisters -- Sadie and Bessie. Another book about them that I can't locate is "Book of Every Day Wisdom" by the same author."
