Neither fact nor fiction, this delightful memoir of a young farm boy in the days before the stock market crash of 1929 and the lean days of the early Thirties is sure to charm you. This tale, told without artifice, is so real you can feel the mud between your toes in the old swimming hole.

Taylor Reese, like the boy in this story, grew up on a farm in Bertie County, North Carolina. He has chopped tobacco, looped it and cured it; he has sold Cloverine Salve; he has taken piano lessons at fifty cents a week; he has experienced life on a farm when there was no tractor and farm life was uncomplicated; when a man's word was his bond; and when prayer in school held no controversy.

"Todd’s story begins when his mother pulls back the covers from his small bed, picks him up and rushes down the road..." -- Yancey Common Times Journal
