The Great Depression is just a mention in a history book to most people nowadays, but Ted Woodworth lived on a farm then, in a Mennonite community, no less. He tells of all the things he did as a boy and makes the reader smile just as if he were listening to Ted tell it in person. And they are good stories, how a farm boy found things to do everyday, got in trouble, harvested the crop, made mischief around the town, but stayed out of trouble most of the time. A master storyteller draws upn his memories and experienes of a yesteryear America. These are more than tales of poverty or coping in an era when jobs, food and money were scarce; they are character vignettes, glimpses into the minds and hearts of everyday Americans earning a living - vivid, unforgettable images of living seventy years ago.
