520    As a result of the American families having to endure the 
       Great Depression of the 1930's followed, shortly 
       thereafter, by World War II in the 1940's, the American 
       people pulled together, like never before, in loving their
       family, friends and, above all, their United States of 
       America.  This book is about the Author growing up in the 
       1940's, 50's and 60's in the small town of Alliance, Ohio.
       Alliance was written up in Ripley's Believe It Or Not "as 
       the only city in the United States who's Main Street was 
       Dead End at both ends." It was a time that children were 
       growing up learning to love their families, friends, 
       nature's outdoor, religion and good moral codes and the 
       value of hard work.  This is a lighthearted reminiscence 
       of the Author's life with, his sister, brother and their 
       many friends during this most important time in American 
       History. There are many silly tales of events in the 
       Author's childhood and a few sad ones, that helped shape 
       his approach to life.  This book includes some very 
       influential sayings that offered moral guidance to a young
       boy. They were taught to him by the Bible, his father, 
       Will Rogers (the cowboy philosopher of that time) and 
       others, which sayings helped guide the Author's growing up
       into adulthood. Also, there are several stories, about how
       unbelievably small this world is at times, which will 
       astound you.  By the end of this book, there will no doubt
       that growing up in America, at that time, was the greatest
       time and Greatest Country in which to grow up.  This book 
       was initially written for the Author's 7 wonderful 
       grandchildren and thus it can be read easily by youthful 
       readers, as well as adults.
