Many thanks as I hope I have conveyed individually to my responders on
on-line book discussion questions. Now I'm stuck. I used 20 online sites
to find book disucssion questions for Wallace Stegner's Crossing to
Safety.
But no reader's guides for that book. I used our book discussion guides
that we have in library to no avail. Has someone used that book for
discussion who would be willing to share their questions with me. I
just received this call today. Hope there is a source I don't know about
that will have questions.

Thanks so much,

Carol

Sorry, everyone, I had a senior moment and forgot I can't send
attachments to FL. I sent an individual email to the one who posted the
original question but if anyone else would like the questions, please
let me know.

-------------------------------

Attached are the questions I cobbled together when I used the book last
year. I had help from someone on FL and I can't remember who it was so
I apologize if you aren't recognized.

Carol,

I don't have any questions for you but when I did this
book with my book group a while back, I remember
coming across something written by Stegner's daughter
that surprised me. She said that while the book is
very autobiographic, the Stegners are portrayed by the
Langs - and that her mother was actually much worse
than the character was portrayed.

Cheers,
