A BOOK that will Surely MELT the HEARTS of SENIOR LOVED ONES. If YOU or another family member GREW UP in the 1950s or 60s, this book will bring back feelings of love and a time gone by. The book follows the author's life as a young boy growing into manhood in a small town of 800 souls in the rolling hills of Pennsylvania. Anyone, anywhere, who came of age during this time, will quickly identify with their life and experiences, WHILE ENJOYING A PLEASANT TRAVEL BACK IN TIME. The town of Emlenton, which lies partially isolated in the hills of western Pennsylvania, offered few outside distractions, so the kids relied heavily on their imaginations and the natural resources that surrounded them. The swimming holes along Richey Run Creek, the Indian cave below the town cemetery, and long hikes along the railroad tracks that followed alongside the majestic Allegheny River, offered plenty of adventure and diversions. Their lives resolved around paper routes, baseball, pin ball machines, hot dogs, the 5 & 10 cent store, dances, and dating. The freezing cold winters involved basketball, deer hunting, and fur trapping. A youthful fertile mind, interested in science, led to rocketry, homemade motors, crystal radios, moonshine, and motor scooters provided a lifetime of memories. The stories shared are sometimes funny, poignant, and often laced with mischief. The town seemed to be magical, and those times now seem idyllic. This book is about the time, the place, the people, and the events that formed, coming of age in the 1950s.
