"The Martin and Osa Johnson saga is one for the ages"

After reading...

"The teacher of the seventh grade civics class was a short man with a clever face. I sat in the last row with Lee, a tall, thin, handsome boy. Our civics textbooks were open to conceal a travel book by Osa and Martin Johnson. We were reading it with romantic intensity, thinking of each other's appreciation. Suddenly we sensed the teacher's presence as we turn the page. 

'Interesting,' he murmured. 'But out of place, don't you think?'"

~ Paula Fox, the "Florida" chapter of the electronic version Borrowed Finery
