A true adventurous story of a family living on a small farm in rural Ontario, that was dramatically different from the Ontario of today. The community and the people surrounding “Seldom Seen “ were connected in a way that was neighbourly and allaying. The memories hold many happy times as well as some not so happy moments. The hardships mixed with the wonderful adventures shaped John and others around him. Moulding John, his brothers and his friends forever while growing up from a boy to a young man in and near this alluring valley.
So many memories that are heartwarming, funny and sometimes difficult. The author showed how the different struggles, challenges and experiences shaped him into the person he became. It is a truly heartwarming book.
Self published. A boy growing up in rural Ontario north of Toronto. Not well written, episodic but interesting for the descriptions of life at that time.
