Title: Back to Barron: Life in the Heartland at Mid-Century

Description: Life was simpler in the 1950s, especially in the Heartland. Kids could be kids. They spent their time ice skating and playing ball, delivering papers, riding bikes, and beginning the innocent process of dating. This is an account of those times remembered.

Reviews:
The storytelling is warm and inviting, fluid, and moves easily from tale to tale. There are so many parallels to my childhood [in Pennsylvania] that I relived my own during the read.
—Richard Ezra Probert, author of Archie’s Way: A Memoir of Friendship and Craftmanship (New York: Lyons Press, 1998).
