About this series

3
Jimmy, a boy growing up in Idaho and Canada, with parents from both countries, finds adventure in almost everything. His time is spent between his home in Bonners Ferry, Idaho and his relatives in British Columbia, Canada. It is a time of discovery and learning, and he soaks it up like a sponge. His friends and family play an important part of his life, and he has a multitude of both, so his experiences are diverse. Come and join him on this third new adventure in a series called 'A Time Before Facebook', and I hope you like it. There will be many more books to follow.
- A Time Before Facebook
The first book in a series about a young boy named Jimmy growing up in Northern Idaho and Southeastern British Columbia at a time when computers, email and social networking were unheard of. His father was from the USA and his mother was from across the border in Canada. The stories are true, but some persons and events have been fictionalized where necessary. This is the author's first work, and although it is primarily targeted toward adults, it is written from a young boy's perspective, and thus may also be appropriate and entertaining for teenagers.
- Ghosts and Skeletons
The 2nd book in the Series "A Time Before Facebook". This book continues with the story of Jimmy growing up in Northern Idaho, USA, and Southeastern BC, Canada at a time when computers, email and social networking were unheard of. 'Alfie' and 'The Meterman' were started some years ago, and I'm so happy that they have now been completed and featured in this book. But they are just two of the regular characters appearing in this book, Ghosts and Skeletons are slightly more sinister. Jimmy's father was from the USA and his mother was from across the border in Canada. The stories are primarily true, but some persons and events have been fictionalized where necessary.
- Boys Love Forts
My 4th book in the series "A Time Before Facebook" about childhood life in Bonners Ferry, Idaho. Excellent reading for young adults, and older adults that are still young at heart. This edition follows the life of Jimmy growing up in Northern Idaho and Southern British Columbia, and his love of forts.
Jimmy James Jr.
Jimmy James Jr. was born on August 27, 1952 in Creston, BC (British Columbia), Canada. He is the oldest of three brothers born to James Sr. (deceased), and his wife Marlene. Their other two children were Donny (deceased) and Mikey. After his father was killed in 1957, Jimmy Jr's. mother remarried Jerry Lee from Washington State, and they had four more children; Kelly, Connie, Patricia and Mark.Although Jimmy Jr. had always wanted to write during his younger years, the necessities of life always seemed to get into the way. Between managing a career and playing bass guitar in various bands, there just never seemed to be the time to write. He was married twice, and after the two divorces, he spent much of his time working and raising his three children. His oldest son Paul’s mother was Nancy, and was Jim’s hometown sweetheart. His second son Jesse’s mother, Janice, was a singer who Jim met in Courtenay, BC when he was the bass player in a local country band.It was not until 2011, after almost 33 years working in Government, that he retired and was finally able to find adequate time to begin his new career - writing. His daughter Harmonie graduated from high school the same month that he retired, and left to begin her new life at University.This first book and the following volumes are biographical stories about a young boy growing up in Bonners Ferry, a small town in Northern Idaho. They begin with his first memories of his family and friends, and continue through his high school years when the family moved north across the border to Creston, BC.He would like to thank his mother, Marlene, for assisting with the primary editing and his dear friend Linka for doing the intensive editing. Also Kasey for her fantastic book cover artwork.Jimmy is currently living the winter months in Mexico and nearby warmer climates; and the summer months on his boat in British Columbia.
