What begins as a friendly fireworks competition between the two lake house neighbors (known in the county as “The 4th of July Arms Race”) ends in disaster.

This is a fascinating and astounding history lesson about life in the early 1900s for some young women who were “lucky” enough to land a lucrative job painting clock faces. You can’t make this stuff up!
