[edit] Alleged literary fraud
According to this New York Times article, Joan Lowell's childhood at sea was a fabrication: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/08/books/08fakes.html
And here's a quote from Amazon.com: "In the book Daily Life in the United States, 1920-1940, by David Kyvig it is stated that this book was the March 1929 selection of the Book of the Month Club and that after its selection it was determined that it was "a literary hoax." 76.121.179.92 (talk) 06:26, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
