    Summary: 
    "Meet Mare: a veteran of World War II and a flamboyant stiletto-wearing grandmother. Tali and Octavia are mortified to be seen with her. But long before she had teenage grandchildren, Mare was a willful teenager in her own right, lying about her age to escape the segregated South and join the African American battalion of the Women's Army Corps during World War II. Packed into a little red convertible on a cross-country trip, Mare recounts her story to the girls, and before long, they find themselves entranced. Told in alternating chapters, half of which follow Mare through her experiences as a WAC and half of which follow the present-day road trip, this award-winning novel brings life and light to a forgotten chapter in American history." -- Publisher.
