Readers will appreciate this hilarious and well written book based on Roger Kull's recollections of his family, childhood friends and the bonds of survial of simpler times. This is book is highly recommended for all ages.
"All families are formed by nature and held together by the bonds of association. It is this association that forms opinions. After due consideration, I have come to realize that I was raised by unskilled, uneducated minimum wage earners who lived in constant fear that the slightest miscalculation might cause their already shaky world to collapse. They were everyone who had to struggle to survive in life and survive they did. And above all...they loved me even when I made it hard.
The good thing about people like these is that they teach you a strong work ethic, as that is the only thing that will save you in the long haul.
The bad thing is that my family always seemed to hang around with people that were worse off than they were. So, you can imagine the quality of association that formed me.
These are my recollections of those who caused me, at the age of eight, to declare to myself, "Lord, if there's a better way, please let me find it!!" ........I'm not sure I was ever answered."
Roger E. Kull
