Summary:
A chronicle of the author’s teen years, from living in his hometown of Ilion, New York, to being uprooted and transplanted into the state of Minnesota--leaving old friends, making new ones, and attending a new high school. He recounts the trials and tribulations of that sometimes-tumultuous adolescent time as well as the many good times and memories that came from that experience. This is a book for those who were teenagers during the 1970’s, or for anyone looking for a book that is funny, poignant, anecdotal and packed with memories of what growing up in a small town at that time was like. -- Adapted from Amazon.
