Short description

A story for children that adults will enjoy, recounting the experiences of a time that most people alive today will not remember unless they have paid close attention to their grandparents and older relatives. Full of anecdotes and humor that bring alive the era before, during, and after the Great Depression leading up to modern times.

Extended description

This is a collection of the tales of an inquisitive mind. It is written for children, to recount the experiences of a bygone age. It is a story of war and death, love and life, innocence and wonder, the story of a beautiful page of history which is gone forever. This kinder and gentler world should be remembered by future generations. It is written for adults who may have never known or forgotten the family reunions and picnics under the maple tree. A time when anyone could safely swim in all of the creeks and rivers in the country. A time before the earth was contaminated and the air filled with pollution, a time of love, life and greater morality. It should be a required book for every school child in America, a history book unlike anything they will ever find elsewhere. It has the ring of Horatio Algier and Tom Sawyer, a classic of memories.
