About this ebook
In this captivating memoir, the author shares stories from his boyhood that shaped him into the person he is today. From the haunting 'Walls of the World' chapter to the heartwarming 'My Mother's Red Cloak,' readers are transported to a different time and place, although some of the sentiments remain relatable despite the distance. The author also describes his apprenticeships in trades such as bootmaking and pistol making, as well as his experiences as a student. But it's the small moments of country life and the relationships with his family, especially his Uncle Lyman, that truly shine in this beautifully written book.
