About this ebook

Adobe days in the 30’s, Navy days in the 40’s, medical days of the 40’s to 90’s, writing days in the 2000’s and a summation make up this offering. Adam Dumphy has sorted through these times and brought out what he feels is the spirit of his past in these little stories. Experiences unknown to others, especially those members of the present generation, seem important now and worth remembering and broadcasting. They represent the Sturm and Drang that complete the cycle of one man’s life.

Adam Dumphy

Inflamed by a novel of and during the Spanish Civil War of 1936, titled, “The Kansas City Milkman”, Adam Dumphy searched out and contacted a clandestine enlistment center for the British Ambulance Corps operating there. Clandestine as it was at the time an illegal act to aid either side in the conflict. To Adam that fit the novel and made it all the more interesting to him and more Hemingwayesque. He ever after felt the British people generally to be biased and intolerant as he was rejected and simply for being only twelve years old. Still he found himself fascinated by that most peculiar of wars even as some men are towards our American Civil War. All the books and information he collected then he still has. His loyalty he has tried to maintain unbiased to either side although it has varied in degree from one side to another from year to year. Now from the vantage point of eighty years of age the only thing he can decide with certainty about the affair is that both sides got a very “bad press”. But then he believes that is true of most major events.
