At Home on the Rock

More about the book

"Fifteen-year-old Ann Burrows was excited when she found out that her family would be moving to California's Alcatraz Island. She had visions of sunny beaches and warm breezes - a place much different from her Kansas City, Missouri, home town. Later, romance blossomed with a young man from San Francisco, when the couple was married on the island, a chapter in a family's personal history became the subject of international news stories. This is a snapshot of a moment in time (the 1950s), of the infamous island as a home, not a prison. Of coming of age on the Rock" -- Publisher's description, p. [4] of cover.
