Author: Kent Otto Stever
Description:
Harsh as the times of post-World War II were in appearance, the 1950s comprised an era of proven practice—with common denominators of honesty and truth binding together the "kinder, gentler ways." These writings wrap personal thought, history, and remembrance of the times into little stories of structure and consistency to carry us into new times. Gifts given to me, they far surpass any wrapped gifts of birthdays or Christmas. Herein are some "lessons of life."
Reviews:
"Your book grabbed my attention—a good read that brought back many good memories of easier and better times. I like your style of writing. It kept me waiting to see what came next. Your book vividly brought many memories back to my mind. Thanks for the memories."
–Bill of Nebraska
"Mixing extensive research with personal narrative, Stever offers more than dry history, but the vibrant details of a life in another time in the island city. His writing is 'a love affair with a town and growing up.'"
–Winona Post
