About the Book
It was a time of extreme peril. The Great Depression was winding down and World War ll was starting. The author witnessed the “Greatest Generation” first hand as he saw many young men--including his older brother--leave town and go off to war. On the home front, there developed a closeness and support of family, friends and neighbors, not seen before or since. Through good and bad times, the town’s young boys hiked, fished, hunted and trapped in the streams, fields, forests and mountains surrounding their homes. It was truly an era that will never be again.
