Autorenporträt
Driving a herd of Holstein calves to spring pasture, walking to a one-room country school, traipsing through fields of tall corn to pull huge weeds or flying over the farmstead with his twin brother as pilot of a Piper Cub - all were among experiences this veteran newspaper writer and editor tells about in a book about growing up on an Iowa farm in the 1950s and early 1960s. It's a time now past, when farm kids argued about whose dads owned the most powerful tractors and how the family showed off products of their Grundy County soil at the Iowa State Fair.
