Ferne, a Detroit Story, by Barbara Henning, is a stunning recreation of her mother’s life. Ferne Hostetter died when the author was eleven years old. The weaving together of family photos, newspaper clippings and extracts from historical sources about the 1920s through the 1950s, gives Henning’s book a tremendous power, the magnetic power of lost chances.
