This book, a detailed school yearbook published in 1932, gives a fascinating glimpse into the past through an assemblage of brief biographies accompanied by portrait photographs of the teachers and students of Richard J. Reynolds High School in Winston-Salem, North Carolina during the 1931-2 academic year. This historical record is divided into four main sections, dedicating pages to administration, faculty and staff, students, and extra-curricular clubs. Each student's entry includes a photograph and provides the reader with their name, a chosen nickname, a short list of things they enjoy doing, and a list of any clubs or teams they are involved in at school. One of the most unique and interesting elements of this book is that each student is asked to list their "hobby", which may be anything from hiking to cooking to stamp collecting. The book's significance lies in its ability to transport the reader back in time and give them a first-hand look at the lives of young people during the Great Depression. By providing a glimpse into the interests, aspirations, and personalities of these students, this book offers a valuable resource for historians and anyone interested in gaining a better understanding of the social and cultural climate of the early 20th century.
