Even though, I'm home! (Obviously, in the great state of Kentucky!) This book led me on a special journey. Since I was born in 1963 and moved to Evanston in 1967, I remember the way things were around here back in those days. When people had to drive up creek beds because there were very few roads, some people still plowed with a horse, they dug their own coal to heat their homes, we had to draw our water from a hand-dug well, and so on and so forth! It was tougher back then, but I miss those days! Anyway, I gave this 4 stars! Cheers everyone!
