Simply put, this book is all about the daily life's experience and remembrances of a young boy growing up in "small-town U.S.A in rural America, describing in words and pictures, just how daily life was "back then"-----in this case, Franklin, Tennessee in the 1940's. 50's and 60's. It contains numerous visually descriptive events from everyday life as seen through the eyes of a young child growing up on a farm and in what I call "Old Franklin," and there is no doubt you will be able to see the stark contrast of life "then and now."
