Description
Adams has done no more charming book than these reminiscences of a boyhood in upper New York State. . . . local history, biography, or any category you please; but libraries should have it. Library JournalAdams' skills as a novelist and a biographer have been charmingly blended in this delineation of old-time upstate New York. AtlanticHere is social history spiced with character, incident and humor. Here are stories to support Adams's contention that while life is easier than it used to be in the old days, it isn't half so much fun. Here, in short, are both the Adamses at their best.
