Bound together for the first time, these two boyhood memoirs of Hotchner s will touch readers with their truth, innocence, and joy. "King of the Hill" is the memoir of his impoverished childhood in St. Louis during the Great Depression. Left to live alone in a rundown hotel while his traveling salesman father is on the road, his mother is hospitalized, and his younger brother is sent to live with relatives, young Hotchner s determination to survive overcomes the challenge of keeping his situation secret. "Looking for Miracles" is a sequel to "King of the Hill." The story takes place in 1936, three years after "King of the Hill," when Hotchner bluffs his way into a job as a summer counselor at a camp in the Ozarks. The story is poignant and uplifting, as well as hilariously entertaining."
